Le Ballon Rouge

Today while Tall Husband and I were washing our little red car, the wind brought a red balloon to watch us.

For a moment, we felt as if we were characters in the French fantasy film Le Ballon Rouge. The balloon went on its way and we have no idea where it is now. But it left us wearing smiles as we washed the car.

  3. Oh I love this post! I had a book called The Red Balloon when I was a child and I really think it is the same as the film. What fun to have a red balloon just appear for you!

  4. Memories.....every time there was a rainy day at school, they showed this film. I loved it, and I think that is why I love rainy days :)

  5. Don't I love the et cetera of blogging! Taking simple, ordinary things and making a story out of them. Good job.
