This piano was last tuned just prior to the Revolution (the one in 1789)

Al fresco lunch outside Arles
All the tournelsol have turned towards the sunset.
This bridge across the Petit Rhone had a passing space in the middle, and a warning that no more than three cars were allowed at one time. We subsequently counted 9 French cars trying to set up a traffic jam in the middle of the bridge.
I am constantly amazed at the number of French towns called Sortie. On the train trip from Lille, every stop was at a town with this name!
Place de la Republic, Arles
Not more rose, simply jus de pamplemousse
The Roman amphitheatre in Arles. built in 1 AD
Local samples which we tried with crepes for dinner. The beer turned out to be white beer - horrible memories of Peronne, Peter P.
More Roman leavings
An Arlean alley
An Arlean restaurant!
After several Pastis in the Place du Forum.
I posted some comments yesterday that don't seem to of been posted. Hope I was on the right blog!
ReplyDeleteGenerally I said how cross the blog makes me and it takes a contested hearing to settle me down.
You seem to have lots of wine fun and frolics.
Bet you're not thinking of us at home!
Peter, we're thinking of you constantly. We live in daily hope for your missives of bad weather, work and contested hearings.
ReplyDeleteBut we really do look forward to your comments.
I am better now. I'm sure you haven't had any fun in the last two days so I am content.
ReplyDeleteKerry will probably put on our blog the scene from John & Genie King's (s') new Bronte unit.
You can have fun in Sydney too!.
When is the assault on Mont Ventoux?
As forshadowed, look at our blog for a slice of Sydney life (for the well off tax lawyers particularly)
ReplyDeleteExcuse me. You are taking a long time to put the next blog up. Come on, we're waiting.
ReplyDeleteI know, you're too tired from Ventoux training.
ReplyDeleteThat will be useful when we tackle Hotham in January!
C'mon, blog on!
