Lavender fields
Castle ruins
After the castle fatigue at the Loire Valley, we proceeded to the Drome Region of the Provence. Lovely, lovely place! I loved those mountains and the hairpin roads we took to reach the summit, the vineyards and the lavender fields which were close to blooming during our stay. My husband took me to Die, the area where he did fieldwork as an engineering geology student. Die is the place where my favorite sparling white wine "Clairette de Die" which I find to be better than champagne comes from. Too bad that with my pregnancy I had to be careful with alcohol so a sip was all I had. Would love to visit this place another time if only to have Clairette de Die to my heart's content. In Holland, we would normally horde Clairette de Die from Hema ;-)
