Le plus beau jour

For some reason - well, for no reason that I can see except that this is France and France is generally wonderful - the temperature rose today from a decidedly frontier chilly to the most glorious kind of Australian early spring day.

Except, this being France, the whole lot came with accompaniment of warm breeze - and the scent of  woodsmoke and herbs on the side.

Here's a picture of it. (thanks, Paul)

God, I love France. (Also, Paul.)
