Thank you for thinking of me and I wish I were there to enjoy the view with you.<br /><br />For the full list of legal holidays in France:<br /><br />http://www.service-public.fr/actualites/00790.html<br /><br />May is a great month not only because, as you say, everything is blooming and budding but because our calendars are just chockfull of legal holidays. In addition to the first of Mai we also get the anniversary of the end of WW II, the Acension and the Monday of the Pentacote.<br /><br />Not bad. :-)<br /><br />Victoria FERAUGEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16319699673885400472noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2424131704277823220.post-23911483128737337602013-05-01T14:07:09.307+02:002013-05-01T14:07:09.307+02:00May 1 is my favourite day of the year.

I had no idea it is a holiday in some countries.<br /><br />The weather in my part of Canada is spectacular today. Warm and sunny with leaves popping out on the trees and forsythia and daffodils in bloom.<br /><br />I don't have a garden, but a fabulous view from my new condo. I look out at the river and a small park filled with thousands of daffodils in the Cancer Survivor's Garden. <br /><br />Right now, I'm thinking of you as I look a those daffodils.<br /><br />Blazehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12871285356307431578noreply@blogger.com
