Saint Remy


On my way after the town of Arles we headed to Gordes but detoured alittle to St Remy's little town. I read somewhere about the beautiful row of trees that line the roads  here. And well, I had to see them for myself.


 Heres a video of it.
(Please ignore the wind....and my bad recording)



 Here is the quaint little small town,St Remy. The feel of this town is a really nice, like a nice place to walk around discover small pretty alleyways and visit all the pretty shops selling "provence" stuff (tourist but i like) and the nice cafes. Here you can find everything you dreamt provence would sell. Soaps, dried lavenders, different sundried tomato dips or tapanades, delectable pasteries or icecreams, vintage looking deco etc..

 I love how pretty even the road signs are here!

After maybe an hour or so we hit the road again but I packed along some awesome dips and a bunch of dried lavenders as souvenirs of this pretty little town.

Apple Orchard.



Before coming to France, Raphi thought it would be great if we could go apple picking in an orchard. However we realised that in September the orchard near his place isn't open to public yet. So whilst on our road trip in provence, Raphi decided for lunch we'd have it in a orchard along the road.

 Crushed Prunes


One of the sweetest apple we've ever eaten. I'm not sure if it was the idea of how this apple was taken or that it was truly sweet.
