On Wednesday we enjoyed a ride through some fantastic Provençal countryside.
First stop was Fontaine-de-Vaucluse, the largest spring in France and a place of outstanding beauty

Next stop was Roussillon where we marvelled at the amazingly colourful ochres:

That night we slep in Aix-en-Provence where we arrived in the middle of the rush hour.
The traffic was awful and we ended up driving round and round and then through the centre's narrow streets trying to locate a car park (we later discovered that the car park signs there are not blue but green). The hotel was disappointing (Adrian said it was a bit like "Faulty Towers"), but we had a nice dinner at a Bistro Romain: the food was good and straightforward, and the very sweet waitress (and the gorgeous manager) made the evening!
