A room with a view - in Provence
Sunday, June 28. 2009
A short one to at least update something! Got loads to do this week… 
Here is the trip we did in France - it was great!
(click for the Google Map full version)
The nicest place we stayed in was a ‘Chambres d’Hôtes’ (i.e. a B&B en français) – it was called Un Patio en Luberon.
This was our room - called 'Roussillon'
and the view from the window
It was named after this village, also called Roussillon
the name of the village is derived from 'rouge' which means 'red' in French, and it is famous for the ochre that is mined there and which colours the buildings
More to come, brief snippets only.
