April Blog 2014

It´s been a long time since I postet something new in my blog. So here are some impressions of the last few months:
Went to the Engadin for Christmas and New Years. We had plenty of snow. In fact it was mostly snowing the whole time.

Walking with Mischa the dog.


After that I went to the French Riviera in January / February. Never had such bad weather during that season. It was rainig constantly.
Due to heavy storms  one of the trees at the Bastide collapsed.
Eventhough it happened on a Sunday  the Jardinier came right away and within half an hour and the help of the neighbours they cut the tree into pieces.

 We met some  new people, Axel and Anne . They have just moved from London to Biot in November 2013 with their wonderful dogs. Two  Scottish Deerhounds.


There was lots of snow on the nearby  hills and mountains.
Port Vauban in Antibes
 Some new paintings of my friend Ingrid


I got this one....
She  also  created some  wonderful outfits for the upcomming Fete de Templiers



...and this one


Went back to the Engadine in March and the weather was sensational with plenty of snow. 

This time we were  really lucky!










Origen Festival at Lake Silvaplana


Went back to Biot on the 29th of March to take care of the Bastide. This time the weather was quite nice!
The first weekend started with the festival "Biot et les Templiers" which I  always wanted to see.
