We took a drive about 80kms outside Paris to Visit the house and gardens of Claude Monet. This was suggested by my cousins Jean and Beatrice, who came along also. You get get full information about this place here ... Giverny and Vernon - In the Heart of Impressionism

This was a beautiful place to visit, it was a little crowded, but you still got a very good idea where Claude Monet got his inspiration from. Hopefully, my few photos give a hint of how lovely this place was.

(PS: I am still trying to forget that on the way back to Paris I managed to loose the passenger side mirror off the car. Well, loose is probably not the right word considering I collided with the mirror of an illegally parked van and the mirror was luckily the only injury!)
