10-15-2007. After a long time on the go, we're psyched to check into a little "Gite" (guesthouse) in the heart of Provence, just south of the town of Gordes. Quiet and cozy, we'll be here through next Saturday (at least :^))
After visiting the local farmers market in Coustellet (puts all of our farmers markets to shame, btw), we added duck and prawns to our bounty of cheese, veggies, bread, and fresh truffles. We're kind of excited to cook for ourselves again. Pasta sauce:
Gordes is a cool little hill town, literally built into the rock. Explored for a few hours before tiring of the tourists and retreated to our little guesthouse haven.
Next day, we headed to Mount Ventoux. Jeff got on his bike and suffered for a couple hours while Melissa went for a pretty forested hike. This being the tallest peak in the area, it created its own weather, so views were sparse at the top. Beautiful nevertheless, and the ride down was a dream for Jeff.
