All those pictures look like a bit of heaven to me right now *sigh* I’ll just sit here and stare longingly for a few more minutes …. especially that lovely tree-lined street with the flower vendor … ❤

That was the Beziers flower market, Joanne. I’m longing to go back there too.

Hey, WWN! Lovely reward, lovely photos, but when did you take these pictures? You were less than an hour from me, girl 😦

It was nearly two years ago MM. We stayed in St. Genie de Fontadit and I probably could have skipped to your house but I don’t think we ‘met’ until around that time or just after. We may be down that way again this summer. If I give you enough notice it will give you time to run and hide.

I will! I will! We’re going to Wimereux this month for a few days. I want to see how many Frenchmen I can confuse with my pronunciation and grammar. 😀

A glass of wine is always a great reward for me:) What a travel by the way – but looks like it was worth it!

Totally worth it. We stayed in a little town called St Genie de Fontadit and explored all around the area sampling all the local food and wine and beaches.

I love your idea of reward Carol! Red wine, dessert, beach …yes I think you have things well covered. 🙂 Glad you survived the journey!

In hindsight it was a crazy plan, but once we’d started we had to finish. It was worth it when we got there. 🙂

Agreed. The time comment that is. Not your kind compliment however we’ve just drooled over some of these photos ourselves so we’re going back for more next month. 🙂

And again we’re back to the alcohol…you know, I’m really starting to wonder about you….. 🙂 Just kidding! It all looks luscious!

Oh dear. You picked up on that did you? But of course I was hoping you’d admire the way the light was glinting off the glasses and the afternoon shadows.
But then this isn’t ‘twinkle’ or ‘shadow.’ It’s ‘reward’ – the stuff in the glasses. 😕

You make me laugh. Too funny.

How bad is it that I’ve been on my diet so long that I was unphased by the dessert and drooled over the salad. It looked so good.
