Thank you !
I remember : I was in Australia, on July, the 14th, 1989 ! And I was surprised to see how Aussies were interested in the Bastille Day !

Interesting outfit the lady is wearing. Looks like she has everything covered by the proper colors.

Thanks for your many visits to my blog.

That's fantastic, M B.

Have alook at Bastille Day in Sydney - but for six days and we could all have been perfecting le subjunctif tous les jours!

Wonderful dress.

Where did you find this one, M.Benaud?
And you know, Sally, le subjonctif is difficult even for many French people...

Monica said...

You're such a joker!

M.Benaut said...

Merci, my good friends.

Calusarus, let us hope that more Australians learn more about France.

Monsieur le Président,
You have a very good eye for detail, (especially when you are looking through a lens) !!!

Sally, I wish that I could have been in Sydney in 1788, but DON'T ask me to say it in French. C'est trop dur> !!!

Barb, All you Americans are the same,,, you have very good taste.

Alice, J'allais dire que c'est Madame, mais je sais que vous ne me croire.
Dans mes rêves, elle était ma petite amie, mais alors je me suis réveillé. (Je l'ai trouvée dans le journal appelé L'Express, ou Le Figaro, je pense)

M.Benaut said...

Monica, I have been waiting for you to arrive. This was your petite leçon, in preparation for your visit to Paris.
Now don't we look after your cultural needs?

M.Benaut said...

Jilly, your photo of the Tour Lascaris also has the subtle colours of "le tricolore". Very similar to Alice's Fleurs.
Quelle Journée !

Terroni said...

Are we celebrating the storming of the Bastille or the waxing of her bastille?

Sometimes one can't see the forest - for the trees.

Gone for the week-end, but I'm trying to recover some of the photos I've missed. So glad I found yours. Wonderful shot and obviously talented woman!

M.Benaut said...

Kate,
She is French, 'ça va sans dire' !

Everyone,
Thank you all for helping me enjoy Bastille day, and for all your nice comments.
We 'Can - Can' all dream for one day in the year, can't we?
