Carpentras, Provence, France

We had family in town and it was time for us to take a trip, sans kids...
so we headed out of Switzerland for a weekend getaway to the South of France.  

A quick stop in Grenoble to have lunch and for me it was one of my most memorable meals...isn't that always the case? So simple, no one spoke English, it was really called the Snack Shop, and we were absolutely the only ones NOT from Grenoble.  Awesome!

Frites, haricots verts a l'ail, de poulet dans une sauce brune avec champignons, steak grille - tres delicieux
Château du Martinet in Carpentras

Breakfast
Outside the Pope's Palace in Avignon
In the hill town of Fontaine-de-Vaucluse
A great meal and view and an incredible sunset at Le Mas des Vignes, Route du Mont-Ventoux, near Bedoin
