le bric à brac

`

Le Bric à Brac in the woods of Vuren last Saturday.
It was a très French event.

Lots of Citroën cars, 2CV (i had one some years ago and still miss it), DS and HY.
The were lot's of brocante booths and many visitors, despite the (not very French) rainy weather. The green (wet) E is now part of our vintage letter collection.

Almost at the end of the market, I spotted this friendly french bicycle, elegant and white as you see them in France during summer holidays.

It was bike love at first sight.

J'adore cette jolie bicyclette!

Last year I sold my old grey 2cv.
Whenever I see a 2CV on the road, I still miss my car and I'm planning to buy another oldtimer.
Especially on summer days (like today, yay!) I miss the open canvas roof, which you can roll up and change the car within a minute into a real convertible.
Yesterday Henk brought me this paper version of a 2cv van.
