Our last day at the
Fête du Citron. The kids, even those in the audience, are part of the parade. They dress up and have a wonderful time. The little girl in the last shot really is part of the parade of course.
Thanks so much to everyone who has come along for the ride. At the moment, I don't ever want to see another lemon or orange but doubtless I'll get over it.
Tomorrow - pastures new...
Good morning,
ReplyDeleteN new day and lovely photos! Great...
Greetings and have a nice week

Kids really love a parade, either in it or as spectators!
ReplyDeletedes beaux portraits, j'adore la dernière photo avec la petite fille qui joue de la flute traversière ;)
ReplyDeleteGreat kids portraits Jilly!
ReplyDeleteIf you're fed up with oranges and lemons, I'm getting to the same stage with snow here. How can I come up with new and interesting shots?
Well if that first shot on Avignon today is anything to go by, you've not run out of interesting shots. It's glorious, Nathalie.
ReplyDeleteI agree, wonderful portraits here, Jilly. That's a "fête" for kids, and for those who are child at heart.
ReplyDeleteWe will all look forward to next year and your wonderful documentation of the fete. And maybe now my craving for oranges will subside a bit.
ReplyDeleteI do like the shot of the little girl playing. She looks to be about the same age as Audrey is. 10. Nice pictures.
ReplyDeleteLovely photos Jilly.
ReplyDeleteGreat pics. I am just wondering what happens to all of the citrons after the festival?
ReplyDeletePhelps5, any oranges or lemons that are not damaged are sold off outside the Jardin Bioves and used to make jams, wine and liqueurs.
ReplyDeleteIn the faces of children... complexities are revealed. Thanks for these this morning.
ReplyDeleteLovely parting shots and Jilly, by next year this time we and you will be ready for more fruit! :)

Looks like a great festival, Jilly. I'm chuckling about the flautist with the oversize uniform hat. LOL!!
