Inter-Hotel Du Parc Cavaillon

... rain finally stopped after nearly a week so we were able to enjoy some out of Scooby time!<br> <br>Saturday 7 Nov<br>Forecasted for rain today but it held off until late afternoon which gave me time to replace the washer in the gear box and for Kim to go for a run, which she was hankering for as she had been getting a little cabin fever of late due to the rain and lack of exercise/time outside!

... t speak french: baguette, coffee, pan de chocolate, fresh squeezed oj, all fresh fresh fresh. Then we hit the market, vendors were begging us to try free samples of meat, cheese, honey, fruit, olives, you name it. Needless to say, we found our lunch for the day. <br>Oh; did I forget to mention it was Halloween? Not that it really matters, since the french do NOT really understand what halloween is. We decided to not even ...

... the old stone replaced like this. But if it wasn&#8217;t done, there would be nothing left to see! Also, who&#8217;s to say what is &#8216;original&#8217; and what is not after so long a time.

We then made the wise decision to get into the somewhat lengthy ticket line (we already had tickets via the web) to try and ascertain where our train was departing.<br><br>Thankfully we learned that our train was one of the ones listed under Paris at this train station ...

... in a bit of culture. Before it closed, we made sure we went along to the Cezanne/Picasso exhibition, originals and all. The pieces were amazing up close, and we were able to recall some French cultural studies lectures...even though, of course, Picasso wasn't actually French, but we could recognise his influences! Definitely worth noting that the only reason we knew where the exhibition was taking place, was because we'd previously been on the little tourist train ...

... came down near us but we were lucky and just got debris on us. But enough whining about the weather.<br>Avignon is extremely beautiful and we have a lovely view at night of all the castle etc all lit up as we are camped on a sort of island in the Rhone. We arrived yesterday and explored the town and went to the Popes palace which is the best preserved castle of its age in France. We then ...

... flaming orange apricots, a surprisingly sweet, mild, rosemary wrapped tiny dome of goat cheese, curiously curly tomato, and purple, spiky local artichokes (that is right, you eat them raw, each yielding only two bites of sweet grassy meat). I also bargained for a cute little dress at the market- clothes, brilliantly colored fabrics,local herbal products and pottery are all big parts of the market.
