I love this car we saw while exploring Beaune, France. What a great way to advertise the Dali show! Dali’s expression might mirror that of someone seeing the car for the first time. It was certainly eye-catching.
During this trip, we checked off one item from our bucket list–attending a stage of the Tour de France. After waiting for hours in the cold and rain, the parade of sponsor vehicles came by, including this tribute to the leader of the Tour, the rider wearing the yellow jersey. This was literally the brightest spot in a day filled with dark clouds and rain, but also with so much fun!

This, that and the other thing 
Wonderful car! I once owned a 2CV and it was that colour too – thanks for the memory 🙂
My pleasure. It was fun to spot it there on the street.

I like the second car!! Such fun!
There were several more with large inflatables like this.

I sometimes wish I had such a Deux Cheavaux… there are so much cool designed cars on the road on weekend, it’s a pleasure to watch them :o)
Car-watching can be almost as enjoyable as people watching. 🙂

nice capture Janet – and I agree about the expression – I also love the contrasting green in back and that pop of yellow – blue – just a nice composition 🙂
Thanks. I’m glad you like it.

It is a 2CV: deux chevaux literally two horsepower! That was the two cilinder capacity originally. We call it an ‘ugly duck’! Any plans to visit Utrecht for the coming Tour de France!
I wish we were going to be able to visit, but alas, not. Hopefully another time, though, and a chance to meet in person.

Next time better!
🙂 Definitely.

fond memories of a great trip 🙂
Definitely!
Janet, you out did yourself this week. I really like the fun factor in your photos.
As Dr. Seuss might say, “Fun is good.” Glad you enjoyed my fun fotos.
Love this.

What a great capture. Love the cyclist.
That entire day, terrible weather aside, was a blast!
janet
I bet, something off your bucket list
We’d love to see another stage someday, although better weather would be nice. Too warm might be worse than this was, though.
No shelter against the elements makes it hard to enjoy I would imagine.
We were able to sit in a partly covered stand for a small amount of time, which helped us keep dry. The rest of the time, we were walking up to the spot, standing, or walking down. 🙂
I love this fun car photos! 🙂 Great choices, Janet!
Glad you enjoyed them, Amy. I like yours as well.

These made me smile! Alicia
Good. I’m glad, Alicia.

It is unlimited human creativity that makes life fun, and so very special.
You’re right, Charlie.

Wow! Such vivid photos. Love the color. Thanks for sharing these.
My pleasure, Milai. Thanks for taking the time to not only visit but to comment.

Brilliant captures – especially the second one 🙂
I managed to capture a spot right behind the barricade and we were 25m from the finish line. Everything went right by us and it was great!

Your “Dali car” has the feel of a Pop Art painting–great color, too.
Thanks much, vb. Always good to hear from you. I hope all’s well with you.
