Pretty in Provence

We’re in the South of France… It’s just a flying visit this time as we’ll be coming back next month. There’s a lot to see here and it’s the only place we’ve been in Europe so far that I can imagine living. Maybe it’s the similarity to home, or the lush surroundings, I don’t know, but it’s very beautiful and waiting to be explored in depth. After camping last night, we went to Avignon, the Pont du Gard Bridge and followed up with a visit to Uzez. That’s a pretty town and had an amazing market. Driving through the rain, we’re currently in Toulouse, figuring out tomorrows itinerary. We’ve changed direction and really want to explore Spain and Portugal more before picking up the family and heading to Nice.

Sweet treats are the best in France
