My favorite season in Provence has begun: the poppies are popping up (yes I know, couldn't resist...) all over the fields and as I was driving by I just had to take out my camera for a quick snap. Continued driving and suddenly realized I had a big smile on my face - because these little red dots make everything look so beautiful, because the sun was shining, because it is almost summer in Provence!
Oh yes! It's smiling time after these beauties pop up and greet us, long distance best wishes.
ReplyDeleteOh you are lucky to live there! Gorgeous photo! We are barely into spring!!
ReplyDeleteYou are ahead of us, I have not seen a single poppy yet!! Diane
ReplyDeleteHow beautiful! This iblove to see. I will be in Provence in 5 weeks and am so excited!
ReplyDeleteI love the poppies, probably my favorite sight in Provence, even more so than lavender.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely photo. It reminds me of a Monet painting. It must be a delight to see the fields "up close and personal." The closest we have to this are acres of yellow mustard that are in full bloom right now. They, too, are gorgeous. I hope you have a great day.
ReplyDeleteWe will be traviling to Provence in June of next year. I am so anxious to experience the poppies, the lavender, and the light. We live in a beautiful mountainous region of the Blue Ridge on a lake, but I long for the beauties of Provence.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely gorgeous photo!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful poppies, what a sight! Also loved seeing your youngest guest, the little girl cooking - my 4 yearold so loves cooking too, lovely to see them interested.
