If you are looking for a place to stay in the Old Town, you may want to look at vrbo.com I have found it to be an excellent resource as you go through property owners directly. Try to hit Cours Saleya every morning (an easy thing to do from the Old Town) as the flower market does not happen on Mondays.

Let us see which climate will be the kindest to them (I am betting on Georgia!) I need to post a picture of our new French Bistro set (imported from France of course).

Take care.<br />-- Filo -- Le petit olivier ne vient pas de France hélas. Les Douanes américaines me l'auraient confisqué.

Ha-ha, we too cling to the Mediterranean culture. Food, lavender, flowers, pâtisserie etc. etc. This was good for my soul to be fed with those lovely images and video.<br />About our kitchen, it is 20 years old, only the Miele Cooktop and the Italian Ilve sinks are new. Indeed, Miele is the best and the joy to work with it makes chores a pleasure! We did select the lot to build on for having the sun from the east, for a sunny petit dejeuner! It picks you right up and is such a happy way to start any day. Sunshine is lovely.<br />Take care and thanks for this lovely post (as well as the previous one!).<br />Love to you,<br /><br />MarietteMariette's Back to Basicshttp://mariettesbacktobasics.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2006333401398843901.post-7865434913788364342011-08-29T21:39:16.157-07:002011-08-29T21:39:16.157-07:00--Cherie -- Merci, chère étudiante et fidèle lectr...--Cherie -- Merci, chère étudiante et fidèle lectrice du blog.
