We took some pictures too!

Amidst the havoc that was our day we took some photos. The Nyons Market was just marvelous! We have always loved the Provençal markets and Nyons turned out to be one of the best. Everyone was there; the butchers, the bakers, the candlestick makers along with the potters, T-Shirt entrepreneurs, the spice lady, the Fromage people, the scarf people and the florists. Everybody we Love! 
Sorry, pictures just don't show what is really going on. These markets literally take over towns and spread for blocks. In places like Nyons it is mostly a local thing. . . People come from miles around to shop for everything. Most villages have one or two a week, (The second one is usually only food) so people can do most of their shopping on the street if they want. There were a few tourists today, but very few. This is simply the way they've done business since . . . Well, since forever. Street Markets.
From there we drove around the country side and visited little towns along the way. 
Here Duane is trying to hide from Paula just to freak her out again. He got caught!
This shot is from one of the patio windows in Seguret. The countryside is truly beautiful! In this part of the world they raise primarily grapes, but there are some Olive trees as well. 
Seguret from the road. . . . It is a tiny place, but very quaint and very beautiful!
