{Postcards from... Provence}

Bonjour!
I just got back from taking my summer vacation in Provence.  Among the fields of gold, green and purple, chateaus with pastel-painted shutters, framed by mountains, speckle the landscape.  While walking through the countryside, I stumbled upon this charming abode.  Parched from my walk, I headed back to my lodgings where I indulged in a glass of Pastis, a locally-made liqueur, with a cloudy, pale-yellow color and the flavor of black liquorice – a refreshing treat at the end of a hot day.  The next day I lunched with friends in Aix-en-Provence, a small city nearby, famous for its artistic patrons, as well as Van Gogh’s “Night Café.”   And from there I proceeded to and ended my vacation in Marseille, a port city on the Cote d’Azur - holy boats and what a sunset! 
Hope you enjoy the rest of your summer too!
Yours,
Jenn
