In the area, village in the Drome - Vaison-la-Romaine

For the first time in 10 years I went for a summer holliday to France last summer. It was un expected treat so to say, a last minute decision to catch some sun. After all dutch summer had been horrible untill that time.

I joined my sister and her family and my parents in Vaison. About the only place that was 25C plus, haha. This time I drove all the way by myself in one day. A horrendous drive ( 1300 km) but well worth it!

That mountain is impressive! Glad you like my trolley shot. I was at a wedding and having too much fun. And the shoes not only look great they feel great too! Danced all night in them!

Very interesting. Unfortunately they don't mention that Mr. Simpson was loaded up with drugs at the time! I'm off here myself next year, you just whetted my appetite some more. Cheers.
