Colours of Provence ....

{my favourite photo of the day}

The day started with rain but it did not deter us and our first stop was L'Isle sur la Sorgue('Venice of Provence') which was a 20 minute drive from where we are staying. The town is famous for its art and antiques.

Unfortunately or should I say fortunately for Mr FF, most of the shops were closed.

Everywhere we went today, we saw beautiful colours.......



Even on a rainy day, the colours won the day.....


We sheltered from the rain in a fabulous cafe, loved the style of the menu.....


We then went to Carpentras, where the architecture was stunning and there were even more beautiful buildings......


We loved the shappiness of the oh so beautiful buildings...


so many wonderful signs........


This is another that I loved as it reminded me of sunflowers glowing in the summer sun.....


But this is the one that stole my heart today, so fabulous and French.....

So from me it is bonne nuit from beautiful Provence again,

p.s. I am looking forward to tomorrow as we are going to be visiting a lot of the locations that were used when filming one of our all time favourite movies "A Good Year" - cannot wait!
