Happy Canada Day.
Summer finally arrived with heat and sunshine in our part of the the country in time to celebrate our country’s birthday and for all the wonderful outdoor activities we Canadians enjoy!
Here’s just a few that the weather makes better ... backyard barbecues, baseball games, beach days, bicycle rides, camping, cottage stays, picnics and pool days, road trips, walks in the park and so much more.
And some special red and white flowers bloomed in my garden in celebration of Canada’s 152nd Birthday.
These dainty, white little things are extra special to me.
They were grown from seeds captured from plants in my father’s garden many, many years ago.
He passed away 16 years ago this coming October, so to still have something from his garden is precious to me.
And of course my bright red geraniums ... that add a little French flair to my courtyard.
I’m going to sport my red and white outfit for our day out enjoying our beautiful country.
May you all have a great day celebrating!
Hi P & G, did you see the colors of the Niagara Falls on July 21, the Belgian National Day ?
ReplyDeleteI have seen the videos of the changing colours in honour of the day!
ReplyDeleteWe weren’t near the Falls that day.
Hope you enjoyed the celebrations!
Hello Pat and Msr. Honey.
ReplyDeleteThis is Arie from the Lot (we have met at Chris and Brian).
I had to think of you when I saw this article in La Dépêche, a newspaper in the Lot: https://www.ladepeche.fr/2019/08/28/air-canada-ouvre-un-vol-toute-lannee-entre-toulouse-et-montreal,8380860.php
Five flights per week Montreal-Toulouse all year long. I don't know how well you speek the French language, but Google Translate will help you...
Both have a nice day,
Arie
Hello Arie, nice to hear from you.
DeleteThank you for the information!
We will keep this in mind for our future travels.
We are returning to France via Barcelona this September ... some time in Provence, Catalonia and a week on the coast in Spain.
Wishing you & Ineke all the best.
