Jolis bâtiments

We arrived at Vitry-le-François after a picnic lunch, thirsty for coffee. I liked the look of the place - we drove into town past a triumphal arch, and parked by a spacious square, with a fountain representing the river Marne. We found a friendly café, where we studied the map provided by the Tourist Office, and decided we had time for a stroll around.

Ochre


"Ah," said the lady who walked past as I was trying to frame a photograph, "vous admirez nos jolis bâtiments en peril" - you are admiring our lovely endangered buildings. Yes, that's exactly what we were doing.

I've had this tabbed for awhile now; I really dig the photo. And the woman standing outside is perfectly cast.

If we're looking at the same thing - that's no lady, that's [livejournal.com profile] durham_rambler!

But I'm glad you like the picture, anyway.

::looks again::

On my screen, the face is awfully small and hard to see. Huh. Whups.

Don't tell him, ok? ;-}
