I want to ask you the details about the trip. Provence is one area I have not spent much time in. The colours are just spectacular. I hope you brought home a basket. I saw a lovely one in Paris and hesitated on it. In the end I put a pair of boots with the box in the suitcase and did not go back for the basket. I always say that I am going to ship a trunk back one day. There is really so much to buy in France. The colour of the lavender.

The stone table and walls and pebbles are so impressive and so white and I love the planter in the center of the table. My eyebrow raised when I saw the sheet charge too. I understand how they could be ruined but a better idea would be to offer a refund if everything is left in good shape. Love the photo of Jacques! He looks so happy.

Se...I remember them going to Vauclause in the book! Seeing your photos makes it all the more real!<br /><br />Fascinating post, this one. I think I would like the Air B&B experience (versus a hotel) but I don't get the sheet fee. I can maybe see the cleaning fee because not everyone is like you but usually they are far too high. We always clean before we leave a spot like a cottage rental but I suspect not everyone does. And at any rate, it should be included in the price. I love the market photos -- that bread! And the lavender! Jacques is very happy and handsome sitting there! He looks in his element!<br /><br />Don't you love the anticipation of a new calendar?! Love yours.
