Provencale Lavender

This is the season - but don’t wait too long.  When you come round a bend and are confronted by fields of lavender as far as your eye can see - its one of those deliciously heart-stopping - I-didn’t-know-it-could-be that-beautiful moments. Here are some pictures which we took a few years ago in the Luberon around Gordes and Roussillion, and the Abbaye de Sennaque, an old medieval monastery in the middle of lavender fields. We are going back next month with some visitors.
