Giverny, Monet’s Home & Garden, beckons, but first the partial Greve. Strikes (greves) are not unusual in Paris; fortunately this is only a partial strike. We arrive at Gare St. Lazare for the 8:15 train, but learn that this train isn’t running because of the greve. Fortunately, the 9:15 train will stop at Vernon. More time for café et croissants! Bicycles from Vernon to Giverny reveal the countryside and small family gardens, setting the stage for the larger and more popular Giverny.
Individuals wander through the home and garden, completing the assignment of rendering Giverny in photos. A beautifully sunny, warm day gives us the perfect framework to view the ponds and plantings.
