Antibes, France
On July 4th we had to say goodbye to Provence and headed to the coast. The last night of our trip was spent at the Royal Antibes Hotel overlooking the water. We spent the day enjoying the beach and had dinner at the hotel’s restaurant Royal Beach. Walking through old town was a highlight and our after dinner ice cream was the perfect finale to our time in France. I’m so grateful for this special trip with our family and that Dale and I were able to make these memories with Grant.
L’Isle Sur La Sorgue
We actually visited L’Isle Sur La Sorgue twice during our stay in Provence! Yesterday we breifly stopped by and enjoyed some ice cream/desserts at Chez Ju Resto & Bistro before heading back to our Airbnb to escape the heat. L’Isle Sur La Sorgue is known for its antiques, and it honestly was a bit more difficult to find the best spots than expected! A few favorites included Le Village des Antiquaires de la Gare, Jardin Antique and L’Ile Aux Brocantes (plus lunch at Le Cafe du Village).
Saint-Rémy-de-Provence
This morning we visited the beautiful market in Saint-Rémy-de-Provence. I bought a turquoise bracelet from a local gallery and have regrets about not purchasing a few table cloths. We also took some time for family photos along the driveway of our Airbnb. I’m so grateful we were able to bring Grant along on this trip – especially alongside cousin Winnie!
Senanque Abbey
After our morning market trip to Gordes we headed to the nearby Senanque Abbey. The lavender was blooming and while the abbey itself was closed, we wandered amongst the shady blooms.
