The Christmas Countdown

london, the holidays, vicki archer


The Christmas coundown is on.


Am I ready? I don’t think so, not quite yet.

There are so many moments before I settle back in Provence and switch off for the year.


London is in holiday fever and the city looks particularly festive and beautiful.

I’m winding up the year here before a week in Paris and then on my way to Provence.


This holiday season I’m in a French frame of mind so from next week there will be all things Parisian on the blog.

I’m hoping for a cool and dry Paris so I can snap away the days and have loads of beauty to show you… a dressed up Paris.


 

As I plan my next few weeks… not even thinking about the decorating, the gifts and the food shopping… I am dreaming of those evenings and maybe lazy afternoons sitting around the fire and watching favourite holiday movies.


I have made a quick top ten list of those movies I love re-watching.

I am sure you have some tried and true films that we should add to the list,


The Top Ten


Love Actually

the airport scene gets me every time… which short story is your favourite?


The Holiday
