The view was spectacular driving across France. We never got lost, Chelsea drove like a champ and I didn’t fall asleep! A miracle on all accounts.
I thought I would take photos along the way, from one coast to the other, from the Mediterranean to the English channel…but I forgot that if one leaves the south of France at 1pm and drives straight through to the northern coast of France, (it takes 12 hours,) part of that trip would be in the dark of the night.
Photos in the dark are pretty boring. But photos in the car with three other people, with their heads in the way are worse! Why did I promise road trip photos today?
Plus the fact that taking photos on the go, of things flying by is a challenge. Maybe that is why I didn’t fall asleep? Chelsea told me, "Mom, you must take the photo before you see it. " I tried to wrap my brain around that idea.
But gave up. Instead I imagined My Belle Mere’s (Mother in law) desserts and her wonderful home. That is the real reason we drove across France… to see French husband’s Mother.
French husband and his Mother.
