France, Day 4 – Provence

I’ve been enjoying our days here in Provence quite a bit! Today we started with a visit to the Château de Lourmarin. The building is very cool, but the art exhibits were amazing! I particularly enjoyed the architectural etchings by Giovanni Battista Piranesi and Laurent de Troïl. So amazing and inspiring!

After the chateau, we drove to the town of Cucoron, and enjoyed a nice stroll around the charming streets and also had lunch at Restaurant Le Cercle de cucuron. The carpaccio was some of the best I’ve ever had. The fries were amazing as well. In fact, all the fries we’ve had in France have been excellent!

After the stroll around Cucuron, we visited Moulin à huile d’olive & Domaine Bastide du Laval (olive oil factory; no pics, sorry) to buy some gifts, and then drove to our hotel in Eyragues.
