Good year for the roses

Up and away on the bikes to a village about 10 miles away. Chédigny. We had spotted they were having an annual rose festival. And what an event. People marching about with 6 ft roses on their shoulders, masses of blooms everywhere. We cycled in on a backroad and saw no one. Then everyone in the whole of the Loire was there buying huge roses. The village was lovely. We had a picnic and explored some of the gardens. There was music and food and art and good humour . Back to base for a BBQ and watched hot air balloons drifting over Chenonceaux .
Lovely evening to watch the river in the sunset.Baca lagi
