Provence
 

What is your favorite spot in Provence?

Avignon

isle sur la sorgue

The entire Luberon!

Les Baux, Cassis and Arles, 3-way tie.

Lourmarin: small, quiet, great gift shopping, a kitchenware store to die for, Villa St. Louis best B&B around, nearby to Bonnieux, Avignon, St. Remy, Gordes, Roussillon and more, great restaurants, super people watching from curbside cafes. Why am I doing telling everyone this? Instead, I should be there...now.<BR>Check out:<BR>http://groups.yahoo/group/provence for other places.

The Gigondas wine region in Haut Vaucluse or the area around Venasque.

All the little "perched" villages of the Luberon.

I guess Jim said it all!

Chateauneuf du Pape and Lebaux.<BR><BR>What wines and what a view!<BR><BR>US

loving Provence as I doo, I could not choose as each has it's special things. The giant of Provence is Mont Ventoux, cloaked in snow in the winter and in season a unique array of flora contrasts with the stony lunar summit.<BR>The southern side slopes down to the Carpentras plains which contrasts with the less accessible northern side which plunges into river canyons. This is in the Vaucluse. But I love the Var and Luberon for other things and always go back to the Alpilles for a few days at my favorite stop-overs.

And HIho, bringing two pareos!!!!!!
