Update in Photos
After a couple of days visiting family and friends in the Netherlands, we drove south. First stop was Luxembourg, a small country we always just passed by.
I was surprised how beautiful it is. Impressive bridges, parks, buildings...
We stayed in a quaint hotel built into the hill!
On the way to the south of France: Lyon
The Rhone Valley
Our lodging in Cairanne
Vaison la Romaine, jewel of Roman Provence
Site of a Roman colony
The fountain, one of my favorite structure in a village
and arches, too
Chateauneuf-du-Pape
Chateauneuf-du-Pape wine cellar dug by the Romans
Cave dug by the Romans
Food (if I eat and drink like this everyday...)
Wandering through the village, we chanced upon a gallery reception for a ceramic show. Of course we were welcome!
Sainte-Cecile-les-Vignes: Sometimes, if we went to a village especially for a restaurant,
the village is also worth visiting
Port Camargue: Camargue horses, kumquats, tellines
Aigue Mortes: still cold in March, fish chocolates
Port Napoleon: looking at boats
You know when the boat is a man's domain when it's full of hard drinks!
Arches on boats excite me!
And hydraulics, too!
Grimaud, one of my favorite French village
Entrance of Les Aurochs, if you can find the property!
The garden
Our cottage
Our hosts' tart
Hillside gem
Another find
Hiking around Grimaud
In the spring, poppies are everywhere.
