Les Baux, Lourmarin and Gordes




Carrieres de Luminaries
an art installation inside the quarry caves.


Van Gogh






Lourmarin is one of my favourite Villages so far...
its just so charming!
Lots of gift shops and wonderful cafes line the streets.



We decided to stop at a busy cafe...


I opted for the plats du jour.
Salad with hummus


Ravioli with beef and cheese


Yummy!

Lilac coloured doors were not that common in the Villages we visited.


A bright yellow was unusual too...


Gordes was a very old stone hilltop Village.
Beautiful stacked stone walls lined the streets.


It was foggy when we arrived.


We stopped here for lunch on our way to Roussillon.

I had a ham and butter sandwich which was delicious!
Ham and Butter?

If you must know...
the butter has salt crystals that pop in your mouth when you bite into them
The ham is sliced super thin and melts in your mouth.

A symphony in blue and white and the May box from My Stylish French Country Box!

Do you love the classic combination of blue and white?


I particularly love blue and white porcelain and dishes...


The bowls are made by a local potter by the name of Harumi Ota.
The wee whimsical footed vessel is by local artist Robert Amos.






Sweet tumbling bunnies 





The writing on the pot says...

"Flick as flowflakes, litters from aloft."

I have a few other pieces with blue and white...
a transfer ware patterned tray and a vase.

Sharon Santoni's Intsagram post popped up 
and
 My Stylish French Country Box
telling followers that the May delivery box theme is blue and white!

It should be a very elegant box...
now I am dreaming of a symphony of blue and white! 

To order a box click this link...
you'll be glad that you did!

Cheerio for now...

Esquimalt Lagoon Walk ~ An Artist's driftwood sculptures

My sister and I met up for a beach walk at The Esquimalt Lagoon and were able to take in the wonderful sculptures that "Brother Paul" has created...

Hope that you enjoy the various beach art creatures by Paul Lewis.

















Public art is free for all to enjoy 
 this beach art has brought more people to the lagoon
 many people
like myself were taking photographs.

It's wonderful to mix up the areas and vistas that one can emjoy while getting some fresh air and exercise.

Thank you for stopping by The Humble Bungalow Blog.
