France Day 7: The Luberon Valley

Day 7 was a bit insane. I literally cannot write all of the city names in the title because we went to SEVEN cities. In one day. Well, to be fair, they should probably be called villages, not cities. The Luberon Valley. It was amazing.

Breakfast at our B&B, La Guillone.



On the left [above] is the outside of our bedroom window. Our view from inside our room is below. (Note that those are two separate images.)


Gordes


On to Fontaine de Vaucluse (the water was so low, there wasn't much to see) and then l'Isle sur la Sorgue (a wonderful city with a large marche (market) and plenty of shopping).




Lunch [above] - you can see David sitting, far left.


Bonnieux







Lacoste





Lacoste is almost solely inhabited by a SCAD (Savannah College of Art and Design) campus - teachers, classes, and students.





Menerbes






Acres of cherry (cerises) groves.

Roussillon, known for its bright red-ocre hills and buildings.




Driving through Gordes to the Abbaye de Senanque, famous for its lavender (which would have been blooming about a month after we visited.)



Back to the Gordes village center for dinner, complete with local olives and olive oils, incredible rose vines, and sunsets over beautiful ancient buildings.



Don't forget to add pretties to your home with prints from my SHOP! If you like an image posted today that isn't a listing in the store, you can purchase the "Custom Print" and I'll get it right to you!

Xoxo, Kallie
