From Cadaques it was farewell to Spain after three fantastic weeks. We schlepped up to Avignon via a night in Montpellier to meet up with Rosemary and Peter (G's Parents) for a week in a nice apartement in the old part of town. It was great to have our own space and to be able to cook for ourselves and do washing! (ah, its the little things...) The night we arrived it was the annual Avignon music festival which was crazy - the streets were rammed with people and bands and orchestras playing in the squares and churches and streets and cafés.
Highlights of the week included visits to the Popes palace, Villenueve des Avignon, and some of the stunning hill towns - Gordes, Rossillion, Vernaques and Les Beaux de Provence. We spent a lovely relaxing day swimming at Pont du Gard and also had a fantastic second anniversary dinner thanks to Mum and Dad!
