We are now on our own in Paris, after having five wonderful days in Vaison la Romaine with our Lansing, Michigan neighbors, Mark and Ellen Sullivan. We loved the opportunity to see their “other life” in France. Their “other life” is filled with beautiful countryside, the beautiful French language, fine wine, good food, and the community that they have built for themselves. Can’t get much better than that! Here’s Mark and Ellen with their friend Benoit, a chef extraordinaire, at his restaurant La Lyriste, after we had finished a fine dinner. Here we are with Mark’s and Ellen’s friend, Jean-Marc Espinasse, a vintner extraordinaire, at his vineyard and winery, Domaine de Rouge-Bleu, visit http://www.rouge-bleu.com/ We had the opportunity to stay at a B&B run by Mark and Ellen’s friend, Madame Lina Blanchard, hostess extraordinaire. Unfortunately, I haven’t been able to find a photo of Lina. Denise
Bon voyage!
