We rent the house on the right in the third picture down every year. I see you ate in the Boubou bar, famous for its crepes and slow service (actually, I can't even remember if the crepes are good, as we have usually consumed so much wine while waiting for them...).<br />Anyway, great photos and loved your blog!<br />Jonathan, London UKJonathan Hnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3840827850297141825.post-76669903259928040442011-06-09T15:18:38.772+01:002011-06-09T15:18:38.772+01:00Stunning pictures.

In the area where we stayed most of the available cultivable land was used for grapes. And yes, of course we sampled plenty of the local wine!Mark Willishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04558305122821209520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3840827850297141825.post-15107018972585910812011-06-09T10:39:55.527+01:002011-06-09T10:39:55.527+01:00I seem to remember visiting here once - it all loo...I seem to remember visiting here once - it all looks very familiar - there are lots of tiny villages like that around Provence aren't there? Did you visit the lavender fields? - not sure whether it would have been flowering but as our lavender is nearly on flower I am assuming the plants there would be well ahead.Sue Garretthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08164518448098182276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3840827850297141825.post-60720672748663793472011-06-09T10:01:27.615+01:002011-06-09T10:01:27.615+01:00What a beautiful place, so pretty.

In one of the earlier pics you caught the great blue/tan color combinations of exterior wall color and trim/shutters. So pretty!
