We returned to Lumiére this morning and it was just as incredible this time as it was all of the other times we have been. We left Allan watching the show one more time and headed to the medieval town of Les Baux. Charlie, Patti, Connie and I stopped quickly and had a nice lunch at Bautezar, but we were seated at the last available table so Brenda, Clay, Rick and Allan had salads and sandwiches closer to the Chateau. We walked up to the entrance to the Chateau and I let the others enter without me. I went shopping by myself and found some interesting shops, art galleries, a lovely tiny church, and a tasty glacerie. Some of us purchased souvenirs and we all enjoyed our visit to Les Baux.
Our last stop of the day was to Moulin CastelaS for olive oil tasting and purchasing. The person who toured us through the tasting puts olive oil on everything. She has each of the 15 or so oils that they sell and uses a different one for different foods–one on toast in the morning, another one on chocolate tarts for dessert, another one on strawberries and other fruit, etc.
Dinner at home was excellent–legume soup, a scrumptious cauliflower recipe (thank you, Brenda), broccoli and asparagus.
