Beach at Cassis

The vacation in Provence was not nearly as structured as our week trip to the Loire Valley. But finals were over, and so we had an excellent excuse to sit back, relax, and enjoy the sun that we hadn't seen for three months.

With that said, the only scheduled trips on the week long trip were on Friday to Avignon, Monday to the beach, Tuesday we went to Vaucluse and Gorde, and Wednesday to Grasse and Cannes. Beautiful, beautiful areas. All had a very Mediterranian feel with lighter colored stuco like buildings and homes and a scent of a fruit and vegetable market. The country side was a view of vineyards and lavendar fields. I know you're jealous.

Even more so, when you see this picture of Becky, Melanie, Jennifer, and I at the beach in Cassis on Monday.
