I Have Been Dreaming ~

I have been dreaming

of ~

fairytale castles...


glorious stained glass windows, soaring into the heavens.


Sumptuous interiors...



Charming little hotels..


enchanting gardens...


delicious sweet treats...



the home of kings...


wonderful architecture...



and beguiling little shops.



I have been dreaming of France!


It was last year about this time that I went to France with my granddaughter Zoe, it was a wonderful trip and although we saw a lot there is always more to see, I hope to return sometime soon, but until then I have my memories and I can always ~ Dream of France.

Thank you for visiting, I hope you have wonderful dreams.

  3. Keep dreaming, my friend. Sometime dream do come true - and you may find yourself back in France in no time at all. Loved all of your photos but my favorite was the one of 'dreamy' you!

  5. Lovely memories! Sometimes those have to sustain us until our next adventure. Perhaps you should begin planning a trip for 2013? Just a thought! Would you return to Paris?

  10. Lovely photos. I went to Italy 6 years ago and still dream of it, for many of the same reasons you dream of France. :)

  16. Dear Adrienne, I am SO glad you left a comment because when I went in to your profile in my followers section I could only see your name and didn't see your blog name. Please forgive me for not responding sooner but as you know I am opening a shop and I haven't had time to keep up with blog and Facebbok page- there just aren't enough hours in the day at the moment but hopefully as soon as the I'm up and running I will have time to sit down and go through your beautiful blog! Lovely - another gardening blog friend and one who likes a bit of French style and one of my all time favourite wits Dorothy Parker - even better!!
