Romance in Lille

lilleapartmentsblog

On the Thursday we got to have a day out in Lille, a large city not far from Thumeries. I was fascinated with the buildings, the Cafes and the shops.

The sidewalks were beautifully lined with trees, just like you see in the movies- and we even saw romance in the air, how sweet! :) (I didn’t photograph that of course lol)

Here’s some pics of the centre…

There we so many Cafe’s everywhere and some very chic shops. I’m amazed I didn’t take more photos!

So that’s it from my France adventures, I hope you’ve enjoyed seeing all the pics. Hopefully another adventure won’t be too far in the future.

You can find some of my France photos available as Fine Art Prints in my Etsy store.

Many Blessings,

Hi Niki. Your tweet caught my eye. I have French friends (one of them an Artist) who used to live in Lille and I always wondered what it looked like. Your photos have captured it beautifully and now I have an idea. Thanks :-) It looks like a lovely city and one that an Artist would appreciate.
