Coming back from France we are usually passing a wonderful little town in Alsace.

We parked our car
and were looking back from where we came
small passage and a glimpse on to the church Notre Dame de l'Assomption
roman and gothic style
looking at the church through leaves
an old well
and an entrance
no car passage
searching for a café
again the cathedral which is really a church
and finally the church
of course it did not fit into my camera
(and I am afraid of using third-party photos)
market place
our coffee and DH just lifted his cup away
we sat at the
...restaurant A l'ours Noir - restaurant Black Bear
how I saw it with my cuppa in my hand...
We enjoyed this little sightseeing tour
Mmmmm! How VERY beautiful, Anneliese. It takes me back to our visit to France when we took our daughter, aged three. She told EVERYONE she was going on a big airplane to "Switzerland, Francerland and Germany"! Thanks for a lovely little tour!
ReplyDeleteSuch lovely photos, they would make lovely paintings.
ReplyDeleteThank you for showing them.
I just tried to reply and nothing is showing! My German is VERY lacking so maybe I chose the wrong button? Anyway, this is gorgeous, Anneliese. A lovely little dream for a wet Sunday afternoon. Reminds me of taking our three year old daughter overseas years ago. She told everyone she was going on a big airplane to "Switzerland, Francerland and Germany"!

ReplyDeleteI enjoyed your little sightseeing tour, too! Thank you for sharing! The weather looks lovely.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful French scenes, Anneliese. Your pictures look like the ones I take - seeing all the fascinating designs in architecture etc. Yes, all this copyright stuff makes us scared to re=print anything!!
ReplyDeletethis little town looks so peaceful and quaint, wonder if it gets lots of visitors in the summer or remains peaceful
ReplyDeleteSuch lovely photos, Anneliese. I enjoyed the little tour of the town.
