Weekly Photo Challenge: Chaos
Claude Monet, the famous impressionist painter, said that his most beautiful work of art was his garden in Giverny.
When I visited it one summer ago, however, I wasn’t impressed. I didn’t find it as breathtaking as the well-coiffured Versailles and Kew Gardens.
It was more like a wilderness. It seemed that plants and flowers were laid out without much of a plan and allowed to grow as they pleased. Instead of order, I saw chaos. I guess this was what made Monet, Monet and me, me. I looked and didn’t see.
I hope it’s not too late to be like Monet, if not to paint, learn to see.

Best of Normandy

From Loire Valley, our group took the 5-hour bus ride to the Normandy region where we stayed for a few days.
On the way, we stopped by the hill town of Fougères, on the border of Maine and Normandy, to have lunch and take pictures. It was cold and raining when we arrived there so we didn’t have much time to walk around.
