A little bit of freshness!







Today a little bit of fresh air after the heat of these last days nearly 40 C! The plants have been suffering, half my sweet peas are dead , four baby sparrows dead and thrown out of the nest. We had to water in the evenings and mornings but we will be soon in water restriction.
This village is well known for it’s roses it’s name been “Veules les roses”
I love this wind mill this is a little path with the shade of the trees and the freshness of water.
It is by the sea


 
Typical Normand thatched house
It is a river like the river Seine, but the smallest of France!

These are photos I took a few months ago. The village been too crowded in summer and it was so hot these last days it was not possible to go out and resist the heat. After thunderstorm hail and rain we lost 10 degrees! 🥵 
I hope you’ll have a good week!

A stormy day.

On this Sunday, I had the idea to go and see the storm on the sea side. I think this storm’s name is Aurore.
We also went to see the smallest River of France La Veules .




We first had a sandwich in our car shaken by the strong wind, then when we went out we had heavy rain and strong wind, but it was nice to breathe fresh air from the sea with no mask!
We walked along the sea and got dry by the wind very quickly!
The waves were huge and the pebbles were flying with the huge waves, some big ones.




 We went back home and found that the storm  was following us .

We won’t be sleeping quietly tonight, to much wind blowing!

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.

Nice to be outside!
