Friday Fun day with Smiles.

Welcome to all my new followers, hope you enjoy the journey.
Angela here again to show you some things that have made me smile this week.


I've been going through a few of the photographs that I took while we were away skiing. I seem to have taken a likeness to reflections. 
If you look closely you can see someone in the background taking this photograph.


This sink is in one of the bars we like to stop at for a drink. It has a likeness of Steampunk I think, certainly industrial looking.


Back at the hotel and a fruity dessert, the white piece is meringue.


The most important meal of the day, breakfast.
I love a boiled egg but rarely have them at home.
This is so civilised! I should do it more often.


The lounge, very pretty and comfortable. This was early in the day and quiet as everyone was getting ready to go out.


I saw this in another bar, love it.


Can't say as I've ever seen a weasel that skies but he's quite cute.

If that's not funny enough I thought we should have a few cartoons relating to skiing so here goes.



You would not believe the number of poles, gloves and Piste maps that we see dropped from the chairlifts but thank goodness I have not seen this happen. 
I shall be very careful in future skiing under the lifts!



Well that's it hope you enjoyed those, they certainly made me smile but maybe you need to be a skier to appreciate them.


Have a great weekend everyone and
 thanks for stopping by.

And if you would like some more smiles you just need to pop over to see what our other friends have been doing this week at Annie's for
"This Week's Smiles" and you can also share your  smiles too.

Friday Fun Day with Smiles.

Welcome to all my new followers, hope you enjoy the journey.
Angela here again to show you what I've been up to this week well it's actually more holiday pics.



Chamois. 
They are quite common in the Alps though not usually dressed like this.


More fruity dessert.



Our favourite bar for lunch. 
If you're wondering why it's so quiet it's because everyone was sat outside in the sun!
Crazy weather!
Loads of snow, deep blue sky and lots of sun....heaven.


Same place but outside.


Afternoon tea on the balcony... well that's what I had somebody else had Gin and Tonic!


Balcony view.
Amazing!


I seem to be showing you more of the desserts but they were nice.


One of the menus just to tempt you.

Have a great weekend everyone and
 thanks for stopping by.

Friday Fun Day with Smiles.

Welcome to all my new followers, hope you enjoy the journey.
Angela here again to show you what I've been up to this week.



I so love this lamp which I keep in the conservatory. At this time of the year it  tends to get more use.


You may be aware that we've just got back from skiing in France and this is a lovely little church we often pass and yes it's pink!


I seem to be starting at the end of the holiday rather than the beginning as this is the hotel we stayed at on the way back down from the skiing. I make no apologies for this photograph as I just love these French lamp shades.


Small room but cozy.


It was a bit dark when I took the photograph but this is the outside of the hotel. It is a converted farm and about five minutes from Grenoble airport so very useful.



The drive home was pleasant as the sun came out.


And finally these are some little friends in the garden searching for bugs.


And that's your lot for today.
More photos of the holiday next week.

Have a great weekend everyone and
 thanks for stopping by.

Friday Fun Day with Smiles.

Welcome to all my new followers, hope you enjoy the journey.
Angela here again to show you what I've been up to this week, well last week actually.
Some of you asked me how they got on with the car last week.... well here are the results of their efforts.

 
They dug it out and pushed it to the road after making a new road to push it on. I think they were desperate to go somewhere Lol!

 
The SFR Freestyle tour (skiing events) was on while we were there too.

 
This was the day they packed up to leave, loads of stuff!.
 
 
The French army were on Manoeuvres.


 
And of course so were the piste bashers.


And the start of the trip home.


Rather than bore you I will finish here with a few photos of the lovely town of Annecy.





Have a great weekend everyone and
 thanks for stopping by.

Restauration de Notre Dame de la Vie

Welcome to all my new followers, hope you enjoy the journey.

Sorry no Masterboard today but hope you enjoy this instead.

Some of you who viewed my Ski pics were interested in the Churches.
This is the one closest to the resort where we stay.



I would like to thank Jackie as she asked for photographs of the inside but we only really pass it when arriving or leaving the mountain so I thought it would be nice to see if I could find some on-line.
I have uploaded some photographs and a link to the website which shows the recent renovation of the building both inside and out.

So first a few photographs of the inside.





 And the Renovation.











 



This is complete now and here are a few photographs showing a better view of the outside.







Hope you enjoyed looking, have a great week.
