Can you hear it? No, not the peaceful munching of the lambs. Listen closer…
Olé…olé…OLÉ!! The flamenco guitars are rising to a crescendo. Yes, as hard as it is to believe, it is already that time of year again, the Easter bullfights or La Feria de Paques. Think that a bit of a dichotomy? Yes, I do too. But rather than philosophize, Remi and I are going to take the high road and…“Run, better run, faster than my bullet”… straight of out of Arles and dive into The Quiet of the Luberon.
While our previous cabanon had already been reserved I let my fingers do the walking and found what I believe will be an equally charming option right outside of the little village that I dearly love.
Can I hear a hooray?
I may be exchanging bunny hopping golden light for a drizzle of gray. The Sun Will Set but me cares not. Not one whit. I have a stack of books and a demanding nap schedule to adhere to. Light a fire in the fireplace, pour a glass of wine…these Foolish things remind me of you.
So, I am going to take a bit of a breather (save for perhaps a By Invitation Only post on Tuesday, internet service permitting)…but promise to come back with stories to tell…
…best to pack up the puppers…
…and take flight.
Because can you hear it? The road is calling…
For all of you that are celebrating, I wish you a very Happy Easter and an Excellent Passover!
PS. And as if I haven’t left you with enough links to explore while I am gone, here is one more an exceedingly charming interview on France 3 with Nancy Kate, the blogueuse behind the hilarious blog Bread is Pain.
Sounds heavenly – and yes I would be running away from the insidious notion of bull fighting too – this sounds like the perfect way to recharge your batteries. Enjoy!! xx
oh! a road trip South with books and dogs and a beloved.
is there a more glorious thing to do?
we think not.

The photos are stunning (as always) and I can't believe it is that time of year again. It means we've been blogosphere buddies for more than a year! Where did that time go? And those puppers made me want to jump into the backseat and join you on your trip. Happy Easter to you and all the loves in your life~ Jackie xo
Oh those puppers…they steal my heart as they have stolen yours & Remi's. Have a wonderful long weekend, my friend. See you on Tuesday for our BIO day. Have a blessed Easter Sunday, Heather.
These photos make me want to get out my paintbrushes! A very happy Easter to you. X Sharon
