:::THE NOVEL END TO A SPECTACULAR JOURNEY:::

If perhaps you are just now joining us here at the Follies, let me welcome you and steer you in the proper direction.
Jenny and Alyssa went on a little plane and some little boats and little trains and such to see some artful ideas and make some pretty pictures. Below, in REVERSE chronological order, is evidence of said trip to Italy, France and Spain this summer. Feel free to make comments by clicking on the "comments" at the end of any posting and vicariously experience a little Euro-action with the ladies. xoxo
















Sunrise over the Camargue in Southern France!









With a wee bit of travel delirium aboard the bus from Gatwick to Heathrow. Flying out of London was slightly painful, as we were oblivious to their new anti-terrorist "one bag" policy. Obviously, we were belonging to the evil sect of wrongdoing two-baggers! Actually we eacch had about 5 carry ons with all the camera gear and flea market fragiles, which had to be compacted into a towering "one bag." If only I had a photo of that Sanford and Son style madness, whoo! Sadly, they were no better in Marseilles and confiscated Jenny's turn of the century balance (scale) as it was...too old? heavy? dangerous?? weird? The surly and nasty security man promptly threw it in the trash after we walked away from a heated debate and barely got our flight!

Love that top sunrise pic! It inspires me to paint landscape again.

I went through 'customs' in the Montreal airport once and they almost confiscated my Medium Format camera as they thought it was a 'bomb'. Riiight.
Good thing you weren't traveling with the scale and a Medium Format!
