Out of St Remy through a beautiful avenue of trees. At Ruth's behest, we were searching for clouds and rain, but alas the sun stubbornly continued to shine.
Past a large, impressive, nameless monastery.
And there were the wild horses.
AND the flamingos
and even more flamingos.
Peter was driving today and he took fright at this road sign ......
.... as well he might.
More wild horses who have obviously escaped (from the wild)
Lunch beside the Mediterranean
Digestion beside the Mediterranean
Anne having a splodge.
Cathy was fascinated by this sign - it was on the truck of a professional fisherman who was unloading his boat into it.
How now - a dhow!
... and a boat called LILI ....
... and one called VERONIQUE ....
.... and little JULIE
We figured that this was written by Vivivivivaldi
Janet. Cathy says these are for you!
Borderline power clash (on the right)
More flamingos.
As for the clouds and rain, I'm with Ruth.
ReplyDeleteNews from home. I came in on the bus sitting next to the Sharapova of Words with Friends. Every time she received or made a move she grunted.
The birds remind me of:
On our block all of the guys call her flamingo
Cause her hair glows like the sun
And her eyes can light the sky
When she moves she walks so fine like a flamingo
Crimson dress that clings so tight
She's out of reach and out of sight
When she walks by she brightens up the neighborhood
Oh every guy would make her his if he just could
If she just would
Lyrics from eLyrics.net
I did like all the pretty horses. Could you bet on any?
Lili looks like a retired 470
Did you ever find out why the car ferry listed to port?
I'm more interested in the 'Attention Chevaux' sign. Were there horses marching in front of it in lock-step, saluting with their hoofs? I thought so.

Thank you for the Julie boat - like the fact it is white on red - very symbolic! Loving the blog - looks like you are having way too much fun. Brings back lovely memories of our time in the south of France for Claire & John's wedding. Will be looking for you tonight at "the tour" - go Gerrans. Sending love, Julie (was going to sign Big Julie but doesn't have a nice ring to it!!)
