Part 1 The gardens of Giverny
What a memorable day this was visiting the gardens and home of my favorite Impressionest painter...Claude Monet. The dog is a Chow! Black tongue...
   

We took a train to this town
Awaiting taxi to Giverny
Waiting in line to see the Monets' gardens
 
First glimpse of the gardens
Very cool tulip
It just kept getting better
Monets' home
Exotic tulip opening
The artsy shot
sweet iris
Color combos were lovely
Like a postcard!
Black tulips and poppies
Bamboo by the water
Approaching the infamous waterlilies
Two lips!
At waters' edge
Azalea and forget me nots
Talking to Diana from the Gardens
Another stuning combo
It's all about reflections!!
One of the many bridges
Steve...abridged
Century old wisteria vine
More still reflections Monet adored
Another view
Japanese maples in the garden
Simply electric
Pretty shot
Like a Monet painting!
Super artsy!!! Love this one
This turned out pretty too
Infamous arched bridge
Pretty tulips
Colorful combo
Heading back towards the house
Picture perfect
Closer view
This is art!
By stairs leading into home
An artists' view
The garden was getting busy
Huuuge lilac in full bloom
Pretty dwarf columbine
