Les petits villages de France sont pleins de fantaisie.

 There's no doubt the little villages of france are quirky.  Here are a few examples.

Villages love displaying residents' views and artworks on their walls.  These are from one of our favourite villages Siran...about ten minutes from where we are staying.  I particularly like the one of the nun that is posted on the convent wall... unfortunately brings back memories for me!

Dogs that wee on the gardens are not popular here unlike Australians who are usually welcomed. with a certain awe! How do you cope with snakes, sharks, spiders, crocodiles and of course rampaging kangaroos.  A Paul Hogan smile is I guess the only answer.
