Summer Vacation 2011

This summer we took a trip to a rather remote part of France, Le Vernet.


It was a very relaxing and peaceful place to visit. The village we stayed in was over 300 years old and gorgeous. Our daily drives would give us views like this...

and this...

as we drove on roads like this...

It was nothing less than amazing. Below is the village of Le Vernet at night.


Here is the view from our bedroom...


I didn't get in as much knitting as I had hoped- but that is what happens when you take a 13 month old on vacation.

We went wine tasting and Grace took to helping with the bottle carrier.

Below are just a few more of our favorite photos from the trip.





We are very grateful to our friends Ash, Brittany, and Andy for a wonderful vacation. We are also excited to be home, well rested, and ready for a great 2011 fall season!

What an awesome trip! I'm impressed you took your 13 month old - all I could think of was the flight! How did that go?

Anyway, beautiful photos! I hope to get an opportunity to go to Europe one day.
