Monet's Giverny


















A real highlight for me was our Friday morning visit to Monet's chateau at Giverny. It has all been lovingly restored and is a delight for the senses! We strolled through his Japanese water lily garden (the lilies were not in bloom), stood on the famous green arched bridge that is featured in many of his paintings, and enjoyed viewing his colorful front yard garden from his studio window. Instead of talking about it, here are a few pictures.
