24 décembre : Visite aux Baux-de-Provence
... tour aux Baux-de-Provence, où nous nous sommes mariés Sabine et moi il y a déjà 6 et demi. Le temps de ré-apprivoiser la conduite manuelle et de traverser St-Rémy-de-Provence puis les Alpilles et nous sommes rendus à destination. Nous empruntons ce qui sert de rue principale des Baux pour constater de facto que la visite du château sera impossible : le vent doit bien souffler à 100 km/h aujourd’hui. Nous avons à peine franchi quelques pas que nous ...
23 décembre : Préparation du Réveillon

Je ne l’ai pas trouvé mais j’en ai profité pour me balader un peu et profiter du beau ...

The Palais admission was a combo ticket with the Pont d'Avignon (which apparently has a famous song about it that I'd never heard even though it turns up on Yamaha ...
Day 2 with Eric & Pascale
... Eric & Pascale as our guides. First stop the historic town park, we walked up to the top to admire the views and then our 'guides' walked us through many of the highlights of the town centre. We visited a bullfighting ring (now closed), walked the cobblestone streets and ended up, surprisingly, at a bar!
At around 10.30pm Eric & Pascale thought we should go home and have dinner!! We enjoyed another fabulous meal with Eric & Pascale sitting outside by their ...
