THREE OLD FRENCH POSTCARDS FROM NOT SO OLD ANNE

1. Brittany lady in traditional costume

2. Romance

What is she holding? And where is his other hand?

3. Love? -- with flowers and a bike

FROM STEFANIE OF THE CAT LOVERS4 -- GROUP: TIRYAKA TADASANA

(I must remember to tell my  cat, Mr Boots, to do his stretch exercises)

FROM HELEEN -- GEORGES PLAGE, GREECE


Heleen writes, "I love the colour turqouise, so this is a joy before my (green) eyes."    I like it too, Val (with the brown eyes) 

Do you know the bookl by Edmind de Waal, The Hare with the Amber Eyes? It is very good.
