Weekend in Provence


Off to the train station with my honey...

Provence is calling...

Avignon for the weekend...



The inviting arcades...


 Beautiful architecture...


 Extravagant colors...



 Bustling marktets...


All the little things that call out to come home with me...


 Intoxicating fragrance...


 Delectable cuisine...

But best of all...we'll be together!



Put a Little Ooh La La in Your Life!

Oh I love Provence! You gave us so many great ideas when my husband and I went last spring, it was fantastic. Wish I could go too, but then a third wheel would not be so romantic! Enjoy!

Wow...Provence! How exciting! You are so lucky to go there! This will definitely be one of those memories you treasure! Actually, I did write the the words of wisdom about time on my post (we changed our clocks back 1 hour tonight) but I probably heard something similar before somewhere... I hope you have a beautiful time on your trip! Take pictures!! :)

You are one lucky duck, love the look of all the photos. I have to console myself that our climate here is similar to the South of France, lol.
