Au revoir Bonnieux
... Supposedly about an hour's drive, but Jane our Tom Tom driver had other ideas. A few windy roads later and Sebbe got carsick again. Poor baby. He's got no idea what's happening. We returned to Bonnieux and just happened to find a winery on the way back. Never thought French red could be so good and cheap. We spent a quiet day around the town. Dinner at home again by chef Melissa - veal, French potatoes and beans, ...

We ate at Chez Nous from the set menu and eventually staggered back heavier in the stomach and lighter in the wallet back to the ...
Mulholland Drive (Luberon)
If you're ever seen the movie Mulholland Drive you'll know that the movie is filled with the incessant sound of cicada's, low gear driving in the Hollywood Hills and lots of atmospheric silences with no dialogue, it's been a while since I've seen the movie but that is my recollection of it anyway. Our stay at Hotel Le Calou in the Luberon National Park reminded us very much of the movie, after driving for what felt like ages in windy and narrow mountain roads in ...
