After morning services with an excellent sermon given by Mr. Larde on the topic of putting trust in God at all times; our first Feast of Tabernacles event went underway with a great day spent in the quaint mountainside village of Bormes les Mimosas. Bormes is the name given to the local people in this region and Mimosas is the flower that blooms throughout the village in the winter. So alas we will have to return another time to witness this!
A trickle of rain came down but it didn't deter any of us from enjoying the magical narrow winding streets up, down and sideways over the side of the mountain with quintessential French style buildings and views to admire. There were "petit" restaurants lining the main street where you could sit and sip an "aperatif" or whatever took your fancy.
Suprisingly we had a guide and a good one at that who went to a lot of effort to make the day both enjoyable and informative even as we were being driven through the wine valley region, along the coast and up into the winding mountain roads. Sunshine peeked through looming clouds to create stunning highlights all over the landscape. Superb!
...and one more photo just because!
