Such a pretty baby!

Because we got this village recommended by our personal France-Guide Aurel, we went to see Gordes. And it’s not just that HE thinks Gordes is one of the most pretty villages on our planet - but it was ranked THE MOST PRETTY VILLAGE ON EARTH. What a title. So in some way we are thrilled that today is a rainy Monday with 8º C. I can only assume what is it like to be (or live!) here during tourist season.
We spent the night on a free spot close by in the middle of nowhere. The mountains here are pretty and nature lets you know you’re in the Provence department. Although it is a cloudy day, it is beautiful - the nature and Gordes. We strolled through town, got ourselves une tartelette from Le Fournil de Mamie Jeanne (bakehouse from Granny Jeanne) and only saw some tourist groups exploring the village. One British group passed by and a woman, I guess in her 60s, saw us and was just in love with Jaro! “Such a pretty baby!” she said a couple of times, went to her friends and asked them: “Did you see the baby? Such a cute, pretty baby!”. I think Jaro might have been her favorite sight of this town.

We will now head towards our next (quite touristy) destination… Any guesses?Read more
