Postcards from.....

..... continuing on what is quickly becoming our travel "modus operandi" ....visiting quaint lakeside villages surrounding Geneva.... we found ourselves in Yvoire, France last Saturday.   I will simply never tire of seeing water this blue.... it takes my breath away each time (and strengthens my desire to want to decorate with it).  Only, this week another site captured my attention as well.... the Jardin des Cinq Sens..... a former kitchen garden for the neighboring castle (which remains privately owned), restored in Medieval style as a beautiful botanical labyrinth.  Our entire family was mesmerized.   Beware my good friend and landscape designer back in the States..... big plans I tell you, big plans.... :)
