Gold and blue




Gold and blue were the colors of the French monarchy. They were also the colors of the Montpellier area yesterday.

These photos were taken in Ferrières-les-Verreries (38 inhabitants). We also visited Saint-Jean-de-Cuculles, Saint-Martin-de-Londres and Notre-Dame-de-Londres.

  1. Love the colours!!! When I was in france the time before last i bought some beautiful yellow and blue fabric in Provence and made cushion covers and throw-overs with it, then repainted the kitchen and family rooms to match!!!!

    I'm glad you told us the answers to the famous faces quizz. i would never have guessed Mona Lisa - although I do see a resemblance now.

  4. Lovely old stone buildings with both rough and ashlar stonework look so mellow in the sunset (comme Olivier a dit). There must be some wonderful, old quarries, possibly still producing this stone.
    Interesting to see it's close to Pompignan. So many names that are so similar. My son used to live in Perpignan; that's 3.
    You seem to be leading us towards Millau? Je me demande.

  10. There used to be a superb restaurant in St martin de Londres. Can't remember its name but it's the best in the region (if it still exists).
