Donner sur la Place de l'Horloge à Avignon

Une leçon de la vie.




Before Nathalie arrived to meet us you can imagine how the camera was bossing me about ?

Here are a few more of my very first impressions of this glorious city.

Photo bloggers probably think a cloud may come over and the light will fade so why not make hay while the sun shines ?

That's a lesson in life, n'est-ce pas ?

Ah ! Le Palais de Papes, je l'ai visité il y a bien longtemps. ainsi que le pont d'ailleurs, sur lequel je n'ai pas dansé.
Il y a des Hotels Kyriad partout.
Je remarque que tes premières impressions d'Avignon ne concerne pas que les monuments!!!

Nathalie H.D. said...

I agree with you Claude. I think the terrace cafes on place de l'horloge should all have signs saying "beware of zoom cameras above"!!!
Naughty m.benaut LOL

M.Benaut said...

Mon Dieu, Claude, tu n'as pas dansé sur le Pont d'Avignon. C'est sûrement un péché ?

Au sujet des monuments, je préférerais boire du vin rouge avec Philippe et toi, plutôt boire avec un monument ou un pape en pierre ! !

J'aime le peuple que j'ai rencontré sur mon voyage, plutôt que les monuments.

M.Benaut said...

Nathalie, cette photo a été pris 15 minutes avant que je t' ai rencontré pour la première fois.

Est il non possible que ce pourrait avoir été toi, toi-même ?

Jilly said...

Very nice, Monsieur Benaut. I particularly like the zoomed final photograph but of course I have to agree with Nathalie. Not that you and I would take any notice of such a sign.

M.Benaut said...

Now, you see, Jilly is on my side !!

Anyone else want to side with me ?

You tell 'em Jilly !!

Nathalie H.D. said...

Of course Jilly is on your side! You two have the same camera and have learned to enjoy what this little ripper of a zoom can do!

Jilly's zoomed-in street portraits have become one of her trademarks and I love them. I'm actually quite jealous of the two of you. I think I'd buy the same camera if I were to chose one today.

I'm always far more interested in the food/drink/other stuff on the table in restaurants than the people themselves...

Nathalie H.D. said...

m.benaut, I linked my post today to your blog. I'm also featuring Place de l'Horloge, but in a very different way to yours...

Jules said...

MB - it wouldn't be you without a pretty girl in your glass eye!!! Go for it!!!

M.Benaut said...

Jules;

Truer words were never spoke !!
