Rosa's Yummy Yums: A LITTLE WALK...

A LITTLE WALK...

Unfortunately, during my holidays, the weather wasn't all that great. It wasn't very sunny (as a matter of fact, it was rainy and quite disgustingly grey) and the temperatures were really low (18°-23°)...

Anyway, there were a few acceptably nice days, so we profited of those sunnier interludes in order to walk around the region and enjoy the landscapes.

The following pictures (click on the photos to enlarge) were taken in Veyrier, only 5-10 minutes away from my home. It is a very interesting walk (see my older posts on the subject: here and there) during which you cross the border (Swiss-French) a few times.

Je repars dans ton univers que j'aime tant ! Les photos... les nuages, et la fête des papilles. Je retiens tout particulièrement cette dernière recette de pesto original... A bientôt le plaisir de te revoir... Je viens à Genève mardi-mercredi prochain... Bises

You've not been having much luck, weather wise, with your holiday breaks! I'm glad you were in receipt of a few nice breaks ... to get in a few explores. This explore looks lovely in deed! Lucky you to have such a walk so close at hand.

How beautiful! So pastoral, but it also looks like great wine country, too.

This reminds me of The Sound of Music! I love it!

You are so fortunate to live in such a beautiful place!

So do you paint? I imagine that one would be inspired to do so with such stunning views!

Blessings!
