On Thursday we went with Martin, and friends Robert(pictured with Karen)and Francesca to Avignon to taste the first of this years Cote du Rhone wines.
The event is held in Les Halles, a huge indoor food market where you can buy delicacies from France and around the world. Many vintners turn up to offer free tastings which we were forced into trying!There is a great atmosphere and after consuming many tastings we headed off for lunch.
We spent some time today on site . The house is coming on well and pretty much on schedule.This is me sitting outside what will be the dining room terrace with the kitchen windows to the left and lounge to the right.
The walls to the gites are next to be started which are outlined here.
The second house is about to receive the first floor
And finally despite the temperature falling last night to minus 8 it has been a stunning day - sorry!
With a lovely sunset.
