Delightful peek at your ride in the sunshine.

Such a great walking city. We were highly entertained by all the antiquities and street scenes Arles had to offer. Fun to se some familiar views again.

Funny. I was looking up driving time and distances from Munich last night. Too long for a one day drive maybe, but if you came down for a couple of weeks it might be worth it. You could meet up with Susan here.

And for good reason!

More roads that we must travel!

I used to love rock climbing, but the old hinges are just too rusty now.

With their coats so shiny and clean, that's a handsome pair of horses.

And to the left, the road less traveled...

Thanks. It makes me feel better that I’m not the only one! I really had a bad time yesterday in Lourmarin because the phone wasn’t working for navigation. I had to call Scott to find me so I could get back to the apartment we are staying at. I was really close but the apartment is kind of hidden. I need to pay better attention to where places are but with constantly moving around it is hard to do.

I am like Rachael. I get spatially disoriented so easily. It is why Keith does all the navigation. Even here at home I can get turned around, and you would laugh at how careful I am if I am on the ferry by myself. I don’t ever want to be that poor soul running from side to side and car deck to car deck trying to find my damn car. It just seems to be the way my brain works (or should that be doesn’t work?). Either way it can be frustrating.

We were really fortunate to get a few nice days in the Luberons. This is such fine cycling country, especially off-season when it’s less crowded. You could spend a whole short cycling tour here if you got a good break in the fall.

Wonderful!

Thanks for looking this up. Here’s one back at you - the explanation for why they both ended up with the same unusual name: Ninkasi ("Lady who fills the mouth") is the goddess of beer and brewers in Sumerian mythology.

I should have poked my nose in to check it out.

Bacchus’ bottle opener, I imagine.
