An amazing day in an amazing part of the world. Today’s blog will be about the pictures because we ate, walked, ate, walked to another village, drank wine, and are planning to eat and drink some more. That pretty much sums up a brilliant day. Sunshine too, for most of the day. We could see the rain around us but we were in our own sunny bubble. By the afternoon temperatures were in the mid twenties. Now we are relaxing in our beautiful room awaiting a special dinner.
Okay, you get the idea. An amazing place. An absolutely amazing place. The weather, which was overcast in the morning was warm and sunny in the afternoon. We walked to Cliousclat, the neighbouring and tiny hilltop village in the sunshine. It is a potter’s village and we visited several studios. I actually bought a tiny, delicate bowl which I am going to hopefully, successfully, carry back to Canada with me. Fingers crossed. At least it is light!
Kathleen ClassenTo Helen StarkWe are really enjoying Provence. We are off to Roussillon today. It is known for its ochre. Should be interesting. Reply to this comment 5 years ago
What an absolutely fantastic day it has been. We are just back from dinner and so full of wine and unbelievable food that the pictures of our amazing meal will have to wait until the morning. We feel rested and happy and are looking forward to tomorrow. We have veered off our intended track slightly and are loving the deviation. St. Paul Trois Chateaux here we come! Doesn’t it sound dreamy?

Steve Miller/GrampiesIf you play your cards right, you will be passing right through Montélimar, which is the nougat capital of the world. And in Montélimar, the best is Suprem' Nougat, 3 Ave St Martin (the main street). Just saying! Reply to this comment 5 years ago
Kathleen ClassenTo Rachael AndersonWe did really need it and it was such a great spot to relax. The weather gods cooperated and ripe cherries were, well, the cherry on top! Reply to this comment 5 years ago
