Today we have driven to Annecy in the alpine region of France. It is SO pretty here. I love all the canals, and everywhere we go there are petunias everywhere. Very inspiring for my pots this summer. πŸ‡«πŸ‡·

Another SUPER day in Burgundy. Today I took my group to Beaune. First port of call was the Hospice de Beaune, a beautifully restored 15th century hospital. Such a stunning building. A lovely lunch, then the group went for a tutored wine tasting.
Then a lovely wander back to the house through the Burgundy countryside.
Tomorrow we move onto Annecy. πŸ‡«πŸ‡·

What a lovely day we have had. Today we drove about an hour from the house to the city of Dijon. Famous for mustard of course but also a really lovely city. Beautiful buildings, and a great market. Got yummy provisions for dinner. On our way back we found a lovely chateau along the road. It actually belongs to the parents of the owner of the house we are staying in. πŸ‡«πŸ‡·

Just look at what we are calling home for the next 3 nights. So peaceful and beautiful. I tell you something, it’s SO dry. We have passed streams with no water at all. It’s also quite hot. About 30 degrees. Feel very lucky to be here. πŸ‡«πŸ‡·
