I have been a neglectful blogger ---- Postcards from my friends..
The first one is from Dana who lives in Stresa,
a beautiful part of Italy, which I have yet to visit.
Dana's blog is Stresa Sights , very interesting with
lots and lots of brilliant info and great photos of this area and more.
Anyone with a huge interest in Italy should go over
and have a read.. you will not be disappointed.
Dana thought of my postcard collection, which was so
great of her, and she even posted it from America. ♥

Part two .. Cite Internationale Universitaire De Paris
Église du Sacré-Cœur de Gentilly
We didn't go into the church, it appeared to be closed.
The Biermans-Laportre Foundation
Every year the Cité Internationale accommodates 10,000 students,
researchers and artists in its 40 houses.
The houses are from countries all over the world.. very interesting
to see the differences. Click on the link
above, and have look! I would like to go back and have
a longer look round.

Back home now …
Lots to sort out,
and tons of photos to edit!
And to be honest blogging has
taken a bit of slow start!
I have felt a bit lost since being home,
no French around me, no speaking it or
listening to it .. a bit of a culture shock, and
I was only gone a few weeks!
I am going to show you some floral photos to keep you
going whilst I sort myself out !!
All photos taken in August 2010
in Paris
I hope you enjoy these…. I will be back – PROMISE !!
And I will be over to visit you too ♥
