Dreaming of France -- Alps


Thank you for joining this weekly meme. Grab a copy of the photo above and link back to An Accidental Blog. Share with the rest of us your passion for France. Did you read a good book set in France? See a movie? Take a photo in France? Have an adventure? Eat a fabulous meal or even just a pastry? Or if you're in France now, go ahead and lord it over the rest of us. We can take it

I don't know about you, but nothing feels quite as Christmas-y as the snow-covered Alps.

I've never actually visited the Alps during Christmas time, but it's on my list of places to visit.
Hope you're enjoying the preparations for the holiday season.

I don't think I could afford the Alps at Christmastime! Courchevel and Megève are full of Russian oligarchs. The Pyrénées are a little less pricy. And a lot closer to us.

Thanks to everyone for the comments. I suppose if I'm "dreaming" of France, I might as well dream of the expensive Alps. But I look forward to getting to know the Pyrenees better as we move close to them next year.

But you are in France, Madame said...

We head 'home' to France tomorrow and yes, we have been dreaming of a white Christmas for weeks now. Hopefully, I'll have lots of snowy pictures soon on my blog...
