Following on from my previous post, here are some more photographs from our visit to Ile de Re. We stayed in St. Martin de Re which is a beautiful village with a harbour. It is also a UNESCO World Heritage Site, it is absolutely beautiful. You have to visit to see it in its true beauty. Below are all photographs of Saint Martin de Re. It is such a clean and historic village, an escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Hope you enjoy...

Bonjour a tous. Hope everyone is having a nice weekend. I spent the week on the beautiful French island of Ile de Re. I had spotted at least four different bloggers who visited and posted beautiful photographs of the island. It was on my "To visit" list which is getting longer and longer so both myself and my mother decided to go. The flights were only €34 return and the accommodation was cheap too. It felt like we had the island all to ourselves for the week. There is a bridge between the island and the mainland which is really handy. Once we got to the island though we didn't venture back to the mainland until we had to come home. We stayed in the village of Saint Martin de Re which is one of the main villages on the island. Saint Martin de Re is also a World Heritage Site designated by UNESCO due to its star shaped fort which adds to its charm. The photos below were taken on the evening we arrived. The sun was setting over the port in the village.

Autumn time is one of my favourite times of the year particularly here in Ireland. The weather gets cooler but the air is much crisper with lovely sunshine and the most amazing sunsets. I was under the weather this past week with the cold but now I'm on the mend, I took a long stroll around the farm. The colours of autumn are great such an array of warm colours. I'm off for a few days to France so I hope you have a wonderful week and enjoy the rest of the weekend wherever you are! Photos from France to follow next weekend...

Some of you may already know that my favourite colour is blue. I love pastel blues and sky blue too so it is no surprise that I love bright blue skies and the azure blues of the ocean... Where else would you get so many shades of blue than on the Greek Islands, be it Mykonos, Corfu, Kefalonia or Santorini. Below are some of my blue photos from my holidays to the wonderful Greek Island of Santorini- it is such a dreamy place...
