thinking of warmer climes





Let's go back and walk the 187 uneven steps of the King Aragon staircase...



and get lost among the granite fields after a day under the Corsican sun...



or after, wind our way to hidden lagoons and catch the lingering rays before the sun disappears into the sea.  We could take a dip soon, don't you think? Once the water is warm...

frozen in time


We went up to the Lac Vert, (Green lake)just beyond the Plateau d'Assy ski area,  a couple weeks ago after the first snow.  It seemed to mirror my feelings of being caught between two seasons.  The autumn  leaves held on tight,  still peeking out from underneath the weighty snow.  And the magnetic pull of winter set in, while the Mont-Blanc showed off its new coat of white just beyond the trees.



It was one of those magical weekends that I didn't want to end.



Then again, who ever really does want the weekend to end?   But at least since it feels like the week days seem to have sped up a notch again, the weekend is never all that far away.



So, back to our blissful time out and about in the snow and the sun... after a walk around the lake, we had eclairs as an afternoon snack while we watched the parasailers take off across the valley.


Let's all hope for a week of smooth sailing.


Until then, take care!

a stop over in Annecy


Can't you just feel the gentle autumn sunshine in this picture? It was snapped while strolling leisurely though the old town in Annecy a month or so ago. Time just seems to move at warp speed these days. We've since traded brisk autumn weather for artic winter cold and although the snow arrived seemingly early, it feels like it's time to hibernate with the ever shorter, dark days of winter. Here's to soaking up the sunshine wherever we can!
