Quartier Saint Roch Beaumes-de-Venise, Provence, France, 84190, 04-90-62-95-27
... over 1.5 million tourists each year as it is the source of a natural spring. It's wierd seeing a fast flowing river and then walking 50 metres "upstream" and there only being a trickle.. and then a bit further and no water... nothing but a big cliff straight up!
The town itself is nestled in a valley and is particularly pretty at dusk when rocks take on the colours of the sunset ...
... upstairs and then down again to get to our car. This was going to be cumbersome given all our luggage, so we opted to hang out until the next stop, where we got off the train and on again into our correct car. Finally we arrived at our seats and settled in.
We played a card game called "Knock", which was a lot of fun and I'll teach it to you family members over Thanksgiving! Yes Doug and Aunt Virginia, there is ...
... came down near us but we were lucky and just got debris on us. But enough whining about the weather.
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 ...
... jason's ass music with peaks and valleys no less that 10,000 feet above sea leave in the lowest valley. gosh he hid it well before moving in!
right, so i have noticed that you can rate these travel blogs, so pls do, we'd love to hear what u think. some knob (an englishism) seemed to rate us 2/5 stars, but i can only assume they are not one of our friends or family and they are not welcome to come back and read anymore!
... It is also hard to appreciate in its current condition which is wrapped up in scaffolding. Lunch was at a small shop that served Chinese food where I had a cellophane noodle soup with mushrooms and chicken. Lucy had rice and shrimp.
The Orange-Chateauneuf combo did not take as long as we expected so we made for Carpentras. It had 2 stars in the guidebook and was pretty close, so why not? We were too late to go in anywhere, but we saw an ...
... where we were or where we were headed. About to give up and go home we FINALLY stumbled across a very dodgy looking little store with a room of computers upstairs. We were all very excited... until realising that the keyboards overseas are not the same as they are back home. You write two sentences with all your a's now s's and all your t's now r's and you just give up. So this is where I apologize for being slack with emails whilst away given the ...
Avignon, Provence, France t_lee... the price of the room (about $100 AU a night! - we are in Western Europe right?). Unfortunately we had to leave our little peace of heaven in Castellet, although we did vow to our hosts that we would be back! But, we had sightseeing to do and after a quick stop at the near by crag top village of Saignon which looked stunning with Mont (Mountain) Ventoux as the backdrop, we decided to head up to Sault - about an hours drive, be it through scenic field upon field of ...
Castellet, France glenn_christie... a purchase, some old man behind the counter suggested we go to Chateau Pesquie and try their wines. It was in nearby Mormoiron, so we went. We bought several bottles because they were quite inexpensive and had a good time. Little did we know that they sell them at Applejack and they're still reasonable! Next on to L'Isle-sur-la-Sorgue, which was okay, just an average town on the river ...
