Sun and palettes

We were in Verbier a couple of weeks ago for my mother-in-law's birthday celebration. It was sunny but not that hot and I think it was a good respite from Geneva's intense heat.It was overwhelming to see the flowers all around--it felt like being in the set of Little House in the Prairie and inspite of my hay fever I have savoured the beauty of it all.My daughter Karen also enjoyed her colorful "swimming pool", her grand-mère(lola)next to her while I take pictures. It was an enjoyable weekend. Hopefully we'll be back soon to gather blueberries and mushrooms.

Yet,the real treat was in the old town. Walking on the paved street for me was like being transported to another era. Aside from Musée des Beaux-Arts Dijon, we were able to visit Cathédrale de Saint Bénigne and the Notre Dame de Dijon. However,due to time constraint we were not able to visit other places. Our evening meal was in Le Théâtre des Sens, a small but cozy restaurant and where I've tried escargot. Yes, I did and blame it on the kir! Our dinner was really good,the waiter was very cheery and accomodating. We stayed at the Hotel Des Ducs where we spent the rest of the night watching crime scene investigation.
