It is beautiful and serene there. If you are not careful you might find yourself stepping back in time. We drove in by the rough road from the village only to find a quick exit onto the highway at the other end, although it would be nice to walk in and around the place. Seems the villagers used to come up there to help themselves to building material. BTW, I use the muscat from Beaumes-de-Venise to spike a grape cake that I make in your Sablet kitchen, an augmented Patricia Wells recipe.Kgearheardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12986360520899578471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7821474047907384633.post-80678780137345841402013-06-21T08:54:39.024-07:002013-06-21T08:54:39.024-07:00Sara - Thanks so much!

I appreciate this very much. You should definitely see lots of lavender when you arrive on June 24. One of the prettiest places is at the Abbey de Senanque near Gordes. There is also lots of lavender on the other side of Nyons, near Sault and Simiane-la-Rotonde. Enjoy your visit.Michelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02084254959003451085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7821474047907384633.post-78480721572925676362013-06-20T09:19:45.187-07:002013-06-20T09:19:45.187-07:00Hi Michel,

My wife also has a blog " Se essa lua fosse minha", just like you she loves to write about our house and the trips we make. For the moment we are planing to visit Provence for the first time, unfortunatelly it will be a short visit due the litle vacation I have this time. We´ll be arriving on June 24th and we are worried that we´ll not see the lavender fields in full bloom, I found your blog because I was trying to have informations about it, this was a nice surprise to find it. Sorry for the long text, I don´t use to write so much, and sorry for my poor english. <br /> Michel thanks again for nice post about Beaumes-de-Venice, if you have a chance visit my wife´s blog.<br /> Best Regards,<br /> Wesley.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7821474047907384633.post-28130322502826751952013-06-19T14:45:11.662-07:002013-06-19T14:45:11.662-07:00Heather - We have seen the Notre-Dame d'Aubune...Heather - We have seen the Notre-Dame d'Aubune chapel on the hill but have not gone up to take a look.
