It's cornflower time at the flower market! I love cornflowers though they are so rarely found these days out in the fields.
On Monday, there was a bit of a dramatic sky over the palace... 
Yet another award! I'm very happy to make Halcyon of Jackson, Mississippi Daily Photo smile! Merci Halcyon, it is much appreciated!
This is a detail of yesterday's building.
Thank you for the warm welcome! Back in Versailles, with a photo taken three weeks ago. This building is unusual for Versailles, but I like it a lot! It's also a favourite shopping place of mine!
Well, I'm back from the westernmost part of France. Just this once, here are several photos of what proved to be a rainy holiday. That's a bit of an exaggeration, but five days were simply Monsoon-like. Me voilà de retour de Quimper. Une entorse aux photos versaillaises, voici quelques photos pluvieuses. Bien évidemment, il n'a pas plu tout le temps, mais pendant cinq jours ce fut la mousson ! 
Every morning, the same view changed drastically! Tous les matins, la même vue était méconnaissable !
It didn't stop me from going places! Ca ne m'a pas empêchée de bouger !
I even enjoyed ze beach! Je suis même allée à la plage !
A holiday like this one involves a lot of reading... Evidemment, j'ai beaucoup lu...
And finally...! Ecstasy! Et finalement, ce fut l'extase !
I hope you are all well! J'espère que vous allez tous bien !
This is a detail of the dragon's basin in the palace grounds. The young Apollo kills the snake Python with a single arrow. I shall be away for a fortnight, I would have liked to schedule some posts but the functionality has stopped working since mid-June and still isn't fixed. See you in two weeks and enjoy July! Oh, and those who might be around could check out the picnic in the palace grounds on July 14, French National Day (or Bastille day I believe it is called) from 11:30 am. More info on the palace website which I can't seem to get to switch to English right now.
Italian deli inside Notre-Dame covered market. I swoon every time I go near!
Can anyone help me? Is it a Dodge Coronet? From what decade?
At Darras pâtisserie! May I suggest a violet éclair (not pictured here because we got the two last ones?! Don't know éclairs? Click on the link!)
I showed you the Cyrano cinema a few months back, you can see it here. This is the building right next to it. I love it, it's completely out of Versailles style!
A while back, I was showing you a series about Saint-Symphorien church, here, and here and also here for those who would like to see the photos again. This shot was taken inside the church.
This is a better view of yesterday's restaurant. The building is one of four covered markets, each with its own name and surrounding market place, visible here through the arch. The names are "herbs square", "meat square", "flour square" and "tide square". All together, they form Notre-Dame market.
I know, I know, I'm cheating. I couldn't decide which one of these photos to choose for Theme Day. So, you get two for the price of one, which I think is value for money in times of economic crisis! ;-) The top photo was taken near the covered market and the bottom photo inside said market.
