When going to the vet and ended to the same!

(From this book)
Hello Friends !
What do we do during our weekend ???
Well, we started yesterday morning by driving to get some food for our dog from the vet 12 kms away… then we went to have lunch and do a little shopping for my husband. We ate the most terrible lunch we ever had! Horrible !
Then we suddenly decided we didn’t want to go home! 80 kms later we were by the sea!
No more tourists as the school begins on Monday they were all in the supermarkets.
It did not rain and the temperature was nice, it was another nice day in our lives!
I found a new woollen scarf ( very warm and thin woven one)
I am now working on on a Christmas shop window from Paris.
These are the cliffs which are falling down unfortunately 
With the climate change.
The river is the smallest river of France and it is joining the sea
There are four       Stages      Of beach cabins along the shore.
The wooden pier.




A nice tea room.
Now on Sunday we are resting, reading and watching tv.
Today Maxime will be free of his arm cast!

By the way on the 11th of September we are going to have a big general strike in the country. No train, no planes, roads blocked, hospitals, schools… better anticipating !

A nice day out on the coast





This house is “Henry 4 house” very old house, because Henry the 4 stayed in the house. (16th century)
Very old nice house.


Today it was cold and misty
 

We left this morning and decided to go to the sea on the Normand coast. This is a typical fishing village, well known here and in Summer it is very crowded. So today it was grey and cold the ideal day to avoid the crowd!

I took some video of the smallest “river” of France which goes into the sea ( Manche) this is “ Veules les Roses” ( the Chanel )


This is the River Veules( like the river Seine) but tiny!


These are the initial of the owners ( beginning of 20 th century) it was in the front gate.
Our Normandy cliffs

Kind of houses “villas” seaside type

The little shop where you find anything 
Seaside small cabins.
The entry of the hotel

Wild daffodils 


Isn’t this house lovely!

Typical house
We had lunch there. This village is a very nice romantic place . We had a very nice day!
I hope you had a very nice one too.

Veules les Roses.







 This is a little sea side village in Normandy that is called “Veyle les Roses”. There are a lot of roses in the village and each year there is rose market where we buy our rose bushes.

The small river on the pictures are in fact the smallest river of France.

This is a very romantic place with nice old villas.

There is a small path going along the river which name is “ la Veule”. The speciality of the village is to grow water cress in the river. We love to go there, but in Summer it’s very crowded, it is better to go there in Autumn.

This Autumn I will take more pictures for you to show the village.

I hope you’ll have a nice week end.

What to do on a rainy day?

Today, the day started with rain!  We had our breakfast and then we took the car to visit a few places in the country. Then we had lunch wit...
