Our River – Notre fleuve
It was only today that I was able to take a photo of the Loire a little further upstream from us but before you get to Mitterand Bridge. The grass is really dry with all this hot weather we’re having! Ce n’est qu’aujourd’hui que j’ai pu prendre une photo de la Loire un peu plus …
