monet






on wednesday, i went to giverny, france to visit monet's house and his gardens. i got to explore his lilly pad ponds, gardens, took a tour through his house, and hung out in his town. there is an adorable little church in giverny, where monet is buried in the cemetary behind (where lots of sheep also hang out).

being in such a beautiful old town makes me think of growing up in my town in england. i thought i was only a city girl, but being here, i could definately see myself living in the country (for a bit). how beautiful is this!

Thanks for the update on the food and all the cool photos! I pray you'll continue learning much and having a wonderful time. The Kelly's are a world away from you right now on the beaches of West Maui.
