Chemin des Crèches - the Bread Basket & and the Cage


I'm not sure if this is the village well or it's where the horses used to drink. Perhaps both. In any case it has been decorated for Christmas and is used to display two tiny cribs, one in a cage, one in a bread basket.

Golly they are minute, Jilly. Must have required very nimble fingers.

The colour and texture of the wall in the first image is gorgeous.

I hope you and yours have a carefree, happy and contented day tomorrow and that you laugh often.

Ah, I think this is the fountain in the middle of Roquebrune, the one with the beautiful tap, shaped like a dragon...

The most simple is the best. These little cribs illustrate the spirit of Christmas, sharing with others, no need to be excessive...
