Singing in the Rain

Avignon, Provence, France
Ahhhhh, the continent is cooling down, lower temp and overcast. We head to Les Halles , an extraordinary city food market where items are displayed almost like works of art. A foodie's paradise. King Kullen pales in comparison.Purchased lunch, headed southwest . Three hour drive to Ceret, rain, wind but beautiful countryside. Lunch at a typical roadside stop, we picnic indoors with our market funds, I am so impressed, the French have a three course meal for lunch, no quick burger and fries for them. The majority of French we encounter are in good shape (we Americans need to rethink our eating habits), we need to be mindful of what we are eating.

At Ceret we grocery shop for dinner . Annie makes a delicious quiche and salad, we drink rose and watch versions of House Hunters. Our last night here with our wonderful British friends.... Time has sped by too quickly


Title: this is Annie's Theme song . Appropriate tonite as a rainstorm has kept us hostage indoors

The umbrellas hanging over the street is so cool. I want to go to France just to eat. Maybe I will fly in for lunch, lol.
