View from the breakfast terrace at Le Mas Perréal

Our plan for the day was to return my rental bike and then drive along the Cote du Rhone wine route.
Vineyards in every direction along the Côte du Rhone wine route. Notice the vines are all planted in small stones which absorb the sun better than dirt and give wine it's distinctive flavor.
The village of Sequeret
ATMs and debit/credit cars have made travel so much easier. I don't miss Travelers Checks.
Our last supper in Provence was at the hotel Le Saint Hubert

I would say your vacation is having positve effects. You both look happy and energized. Can you ask for seconds? Some of the food looks small in portion. Be Happy !
ReplyDeleteWe are enjoying ourselves, although the heat is really bothering me. Especially since there is very little AC despite the history of incredibly high temps in southern France in the summer months. Ask Jane how hot it was during the French Open. You're right, the portions are on the small side but you have to remember how many courses are being served. We've never gone away hungry.
DeleteAre Sarah and the boys still with you? I'm sure you had them out on the Mahalo a lot.
I want some of that gaspacho!!!! and who is Hubert?
ReplyDeleteThis gazpacho was wonderful, so smooth and yet filled with a variety of crunchy nuts, seeds,and vegetables. Hubert is the owner of Luberon Biking, from whom I rented bikes since 2010. He is the former coach of France’s Olympic mountain biking team.
