Our last couple of weeks in Provence


Hi everybody!

This blog post is about some of the things we did in our last couple of weeks in Provence.
Daddy, Kian and I playing boules in Pernes-les-Fontaines
CARPENTRAS STRAWBERRY FAIR
I painted 2 strawberries at the fair, and named them for Kian and I.
We bought one of these big baskets of strawberries, and I ate nearly all of them!

PERNES-LES-FONTAINES
Me and Kian, dinner at Gallery café - Pernes-les Fontaines

Me and Kian made a new friend - Batiste - he lived across the road. 
One of our local cafés.
Me and Kian eating ice cream at Cafe de la Place.
We went to a restaurant called Au Fil Du Temps in our village.

Inside Au Fil du Temps

For my entree, I had asparagus with a smoke foam and poached egg. I had rabbit for my main course which I loved. I had strawberries for dessert. Yummy!

AVIGNON

In Avignon there is a palace called Palais des Papes. In Palais des Papes there was lots of paintings. It was made with lots of old bricks. The bricks had turned a bit brown. The popes used to live here in the olden days.




Pont d'Avignon - only goes half way across the river!

We have now left Provence, and have arrived in Varzy, Burgundy, but on the way we caught up with Georgia and Emma (Sands) from Fairfield Primary School! We had lunch and a play with them.



Thanks everybody for reading this. I would love to get some comments back from you!

Au revoir!

Hi beautiful girl, looks and sounds like you are having the best
Time and trying some foods that grandma would be a bit scared
to try. Some of the places you have visited and the photos look
amazing. Daddy looks like his enjoying his photography.
Are you sure you wouldn't like to go to school in France? It might be fun for a little while, but you would miss out on too much fun with mummy, daddy an Kian. Keep sending messages and photos. Kisses and hugs to you all. Love grandma xxx

Pa says the icecream looks amazing and loves your smiles even
better. Xx

Grandma Katie said...

Hey there little girl. I can hardly keep up with
your travels and outings to all those beautiful
places. It really does sound so fantastic and
we are over the moon that you are having such great fun. You'll need to make up your own 'Recipe Book' with all those delicious foods that you've tried so that we all know where to go to eat out when in France! Hugs and love. xx

Poobah said...

Well - what fun you are all having - and all that sightseeing as well. Wow - you'll be able to be the French knowledge encyclopaedia soon - excellent!
Love ya xxx

PS. I forgot to say and ask from the previous blog:

Did you go on the boat?

Did you go to the beach and make sand castles?

Did the fish hurt you and Kian?

Hi grandma - No, I'm pretty sure that I don't want to go to
school. Mummy is taking some of the photos too - when
daddy lets her!
Talk to you soon!
Love Kayla xoxox

Hi Siena,
Yes i did go on the boat, but we didn't get to make sandcastles, the weather got a bit cold. The fish didn't hurt, they only tickled!
What did you do on your school holidays?
Miss you, love Kayla xoxo
