A "DAY" IN PROVENCE.

Went for a nice quiet drive through the hill towns, vineyards and lavender fields of Provence. Another “to die for’ area.
One of the many hillside towns

Before I left home I read up on Peter Mayle’s book “A Year In Provence” The area is just like the book, what a surprise! In fact we even drove though Monieux the town and the area he wrote about. Lots of renovated old and large stone farmhouses, quite a large expat community there trying it for themselves. I think I’m outpriced there now.

Sharon having a glass of wine in a really friendy cafe on one of the many hillside towns...looking across to another one.


Lot’s of lavender fields but not a lot of lavender goods for sale. We finally figured that the lavender was for the bees. Honey is one of the big sale items. Lavender honey.




Some hills you built on


And some you just go through.
