We just returned from two weeks in Europe. The first week we spent in Samoens, France. We have friends from Banff who are living there for a year and they asked us to come and visit. The second week we spent in Verona, Italy and Venice, Italy. It is hard to express overall the magic that we experienced in Europe....it was a very special trip for all of us. In the next while I will post paintings I created along the journey as well as new ones created from the 600 photos I took.
This painting is just out of the town centre of Samoens, with Les Criou mountain towering over the town.
We had an incredible time here.......high alpine hiking, via ferrata, parapenting, wine, cheese, it was a great week. With our friends having lived here for almost a year they knew all the great spots to go to. We would bike to the boulangerie in the morning to get fresh croissants and bread, then later in the day go to the local butcher to get our evening meal and then to the fromagerie to pick up cheese. Its a good thing we were fairly active so we could work off all the great food we had.
Wonderful post and I absolutely love this painting! Warm greetings from Montreal, Canada. :)
