Monet's Backyard






27th July, how good are Monet’s gardens? Not only was he a great impressionist but also pretty handy with the Dynamic Lifter and a wheelbarrow. But seriously after the easy drive to Giverny it was easy for all the family to see how Monet was inspired to create his masterpieces. Harrison was so inspired that he decided that it was time to learn how to use the SLR camera, after which it was hard to pry from his creative grasp. The soft summer light, the lazy water lilies and vivid floral displays all combine to create a tiny paradise on the banks of the river. Although we had been at the gardens for hours we didn’t realize as we had been so engrossed by what we had seen on the day.
Another great adventure, followed by home made pizza and the promise of an even greater adventure tomorrow.
