The Luberon: Place of Beauty and Stone


Listen Later

“The early-morning Easter Light, clean and clear as a polished sapphire, back-lit a ribbon of mist hovering over the Luberon plain. The almonds had burst into blossom and the cherries were hard on their tales’.   - Alex Dingwall-Main, The Luberon Garden 

Welcome to  Episode #39:

This weeks share is a day driving through the region of the Luberon Mountains in Provence.   A visit to Menerbes, the place of truffle and vin.  We enter the tree lined village to marvel at the plane trees and to wander the paths and streets of the medieval village.  The views are magnificent from this grand location.  It is a day of beauty and vision taking in the rural atmosphere of cherry orchards and vines that are waiting to unfurl, and scenic drives in Lacoste, Bonnieux and Apt.  A beautiful prelude to the days ahead before the family catch the TGV to Paris for the finale of the journey from Padova Italy to Paris, France.
