Le paradis ?
Empty and shady August benches in the grounds of Madame Elisabeth's orangerie. Could this be heaven?! --------------- Les bancs déserts et ombragés du mois d'août dans le domaine de Madame Elisabeth seraient-ils le paradis ?
If it were heaven, we'd have to conclude that no one was there and we were outside looking in! Regarding your lack of interest in coffee, Can I treat you at least to hot chocolate?
Oh! I love that bench and you should tell Rune (Visual Norway) about it today since he has this informal bench blog on Fridays. . . I have a bench too -- it is my personal bench I bought at Farmers Market last month. Drop by and see it on my bench blog.
Thank you for visiting and leaving a thought! Sorry about the moderation, a bit tired of spam at the moment!
Merci de votre visite très appréciée et de laisser une pensée ! Désolée de devoir modérer vos commentaires, VDP en a un peu marre des spammeurs en ce moment !
I agree, but in this French paradise, the benches are definitely British...
ReplyDeleteA true sunny green paradise.
ReplyDeleteNo, silly, it's not heaven. It is very nice, though...a place to refresh oneself when it's hot.
ReplyDeleteIs everyone on vacation in the south of France? It looks so quiet.

Fully expecting to see Babooshka (Ramsey Daily Photo) hopping onto this bench at any minute. That has to be the greenest green I've seen in a while!
ReplyDelete@VP: definitely!
ReplyDelete@Bob: yep. It's great! They're all starting to come back unfortunately.

Beautiful grounds--inviting benches--where are the people. MB
ReplyDeleteLooks like heaven to me. ;-) I'm guessing everyone is on holiday and that the crowds will return soon.
ReplyDeleteNo! Not heaven but it is just around the corner.
ReplyDeleteQuel bel endroit! Aaaah!...Comme j'aimerais y être à l'instant! :-)
ReplyDeleteI don't think green gets any better. Such a serene and heavenly place to be.
