It is a glorious Abbey just outside Beziers. If I can find my writing mojo again I will do a post about it as I think I have some half-decent photographs. The town too is worth a mention with lots of quirky elements. I also remember spending a long time in a vineyard there with an olive farm attached and buying an awful lot of their special olives to bring home.
Every trio a beauty! I remember buying and loving tee’s like that on holiday in Spain as a child. Last Summer my girls had some very similar, which they wore slightly ironically for a cool, nod-to-the-80’s vibe. They are blessed with way more style than I’ve ever had haha.
I could go for the mega chandelier in that first shot though- what a statement piece!
It was a very ornate hotel as you can judge from the drapes alone and we’d been taken there by our Belgium friend for a coffee and to marvel at the interior! One of those place where you say “Lovely, can we go now and sit outside and people watch as we drink our coffee”!
I visited an orchid farm in Thailand and I’ve got dozens of photographs which I daily compare to my effort at keeping alive my own white orchid which refuses to do what it says on the label!
Ah, you’re not like me then. I start of saying I’ll never wear anything like that, the heat gets to me and I end up looking like a tramp some days (does one still use the word ‘tramp’ I wonder)?
Oh I do wear things on trips that I would never be seen dead in at home, but I think I draw the line at exposing my midriff! However, never say never …
MARI'S TRAVELS WITH HER CAMERA 
I enjoyed seeing your trios, Mari! In the heat, one never looks smart. Just sweaty and bedraggled – or is it just me?

I definitely do. Although I love the heat it plays havoc with my hair and I always seem to look sweaty and bedraggled!

High humidity certainly fluffs up my hair too!

It’s the Abbaye for me! I’m a sucker for cloisters and these look glorious, Mari.

Sounds good. Will look forward to it. I’m a bit low on the mojo too, at the moment 🙄💗

Beautiful orchids! I’ll pass on the t-shirts and the curtains though.

Where’s your sense of adventure? The curtains you could always wrap around yourself as a sarong, the tee shirts ?? No, I don’t know!

I don’t think the t-shirts are quite my style. Tasselley bits round my middle? And the curtains are way too fussy. Hmm – still no!

Those orchids are glorious! Not sure I’d wear a t-shirt like that however 😆
