So today I just got back from a trip to the park around Mt. St Victoire with un ami francais...sadly, I did not bring my camera (don't worry, there will be return trips), and although we only walked around for about 2 hours, it was lovely. The views of the mountain, and of the dam, ravines, and surrounding hills and countryside, were absolutely majestic. And even though it's February, the weather was pleasant enough that I didn't need a scarf or to button my jacket, and the light wind was just enough to cool me off as I trekked around in my very unpractical boots. As I said, it will definitely happen again, and I will definitely bring my camera because I can't really do it justice, but here is a painting by Cezanne:
Anyway, my legs are tired, but next time I will wear my (slightly less impractical) sneakers and walk around some more (although not up the mountain). In an hour we're going out for a wine-tasting, which should be incroyable and succulant.
A bientot!
