Sharing some images of this week's activities at French Brocantes and fairs
stopping for espresso and frittes
I spotted her as she stepped onto the pavement...
She accepted the invite to come home with us..
there was time for out rides this week amongst the vineyards at the local village club, and she was invited to join in the equestrian classes which she was most excited about..guess French horses understand English as well...or is it the other way around?
early to rise tomorrow, for our last Sunday Brocante on this trip
love from France

Have a wonderful last day of brocantes! I hope that you find treasures galore!!!!
I would love to shop there.
There's several pictures I love...the blue and white teacup of course:) and Dd packing and pointing that gun (better not mess with her) and already learning a bargain when she sees one. What a very lucky girl.
DD looks like she is having such fun time! (And she is such a cutie) We are in Plett for a week, this afternoon watching the Wimbledon final with strawberries and champagne but I would still rather be shopping at a brocante and drinking espresso at a cafe! Xx Sharon
Hi Colette what a team you and Dd are :)
She is so adorable as her Mom, Mum, Mere is :)
I know you were taken with the textiles and all the goodies that follow at a brocante.
I too would have enjoyed shopping right along side of you! next time :) as for now we shop right along with you Via your blog site.
Take care, enjoying all you share.

All the best, and safe travels as you go on your vacation from the brocantes and then home!
Thank you for sharing - my husband had a job offer that would have involved twice yearly travel to Paris. I was so excited! But, after months of promises, the offer just disappeared. Very disappointing.
Fortunately we have your photos to look at - I study them closely, picking out those items that I would have loved and possibly bought. The clothes form would definitely have been one of them! Such a lovely shape to her!
Bon voyage!

OMG what is Dd doing up so high in the air? She's getting so big Col and she's beautiful just like her Mom. What a lucky young lady to have the experiances she has traveling with you.
I hope you're enjoying some down time too!

Hi Col - it looks like you are all having the most amazing time!! Enjoy every moment. I think I might need to pop by Franschoek this weekend..... Cold and rainy here. Cath x

What mother/daughter fun you are having. She is learning and loving the Brocantes at "the foot of a master" and still frolicing like the child she is. What a beauty and treasure!
Love traveling with you, ma chère!
