France, Week One
How are you all? Good I do hope! =) I finally have a minute and some photos to throw up here on the blog for you all. We have been taking it easy the last few days, Dad is slowly getting over his cold and us girls are using the time to work on our tans. It’s a well-earned rest.
We have ventured to a few small towns around the area, Gigondas, Vacuaqures, Sarrians and Velleron yesterday to go to their fruit and vegetable market – it really put the farmer’s market in Westfield to shame! We got lots and lots of fresh produce, and most things were 1 Euro a bucket, 4 eggplants for a euro! Amazing!
We have been eating lots of lovely food, Johanna – if I could send you all this cheese I see around me I so would! You would love it! Meish has been cooking for us most nights, and they are always scrumptious dishes. And of course we have been making a morning pilgrimage to the bakery for croissants and pain au chocolat. Yummmm.
So that’s about it, we have a few adventures planned out, a trip tomorrow to a small island town for their market, a trip to the lavender fields if we can find one that has not yet been harvested, and of course there are a few more vineyards to be visited! So I had best get on with it, we have to come to a bar in town to get internet so the visits are always quick stops on the way somewhere.
Hope alls well with you,
lots of love
jess xoxo
