Brekky at our friends’ place - bread, butter, confiture & coffee. There are no restaurants here nor supermarkets. The town is a little isolated.
We drove to Forcalquier to explore the old town, and walked up to the Citadel on the top of the hill. Immense views across the Luberon.
Lunch - veggie burger and limonade - in the sun at La Source Boulangerie. A healthy bakery.
Waved farewell to our friends and returned to Avignon to return the car.
The petrol stations here are self-service - one pays first at the pump, then fills up. There are no staff to help. When we arrived at the pump, there is the price on the display of the previous purchase, so it feels as though we were paying for that. I guess this is the way of the future.
After returning the car, which took all of about 5 minutes, Yay, we trudged to the hotel.
Please can I rest a while?
No. We have to do some washing. After a few trips back & forth to the laundrette, we are now completely knackered.
Dinner at the restaurant right next to the hotel - Brasserie Le Cintra - a Salad Nicoise each - then one last trudge to the Monoprix for a couple of supplies (particularly Vittel water for me because I love it so much), then returned to the hotel to pack, as we have an early start tomorrow.
Thank you feet, for your support. Now, let’s rest. 💜
