Home

We had a gentle meander back to Pissou today, taking the minor roads across country, passing through the vineyards and the little villages of the Languedoc - it only took us 3 hrs from leaving Beziers on the coast! We had certainly timed the break well from a weather point of view, as rain is forecast here over the coming days. Although we have only been away for 5 days, the rain before we went followed by the hot sun of the past few days has really brought on the vegetation and everything is starting to look really lush and green. I love this this time of year with it's new growth and vibrant fresh colours.

Although it is good to have had a change of scenery, it was lovely to sit in the sun on the terrasse this afternoon and just hear birdsong and the brook burbling away down in the valley rather than dogs barking, workmen with compressors and traffic. Bliss :-)
