Flowers in a neighbours garden …

Today I went to a  house,

in the next street to me

and asked if I could practice taking

flower photos in their garden ..

A lovely elderly couple that I have never

even spoken too.

It took a while to explain what I

was going to do with them ….

The blog …!!!!

The Cosmos is native to Mexico, but the lady of the house,

did say that they grow all over the land in South Africa,

where her friend lives.

Spot the bee flying !

 

Honesty Seed Pods

I think secretly they were very happy that

someone really notices their garden..

You cannot miss it .. it is beautiful when in

full bloom!!

Wildlife, Gardens and Walks.......

Leesa had been over to Hyde park before I arrived and loved it. It is brilliant for walking, jogging or even swimming! Or you can just go for breakfast in the Lido. It is an amazing place and so friendly. I got up at 6.30am to go for a walk and breakfast, as it was highly recommended by Leesa!

Mine was the Granola and Cafe!

Jardin Du Luxembourg ......

is so pretty, such a wonderful place to stroll around, go for your lunch, read a book, or even a game of Boules!

I took the metro so far then walked from Place Denfert Rochereau..

I did take one, but didn't realize it was blurred until later. I then set off to meet Leesa and Dawn at Saint-Paul Metro to walk round Le Marais and go for a coffee!!!
