Aix en Provence, what's being worn on the Cours Mirabeau

Need I add that it is not only French women who spend time before the mirror before going out..

Thyme

Was home with a cold for a couple of day, snoozing and reading in the chaise longue up on the terrace, but by Monday I was back on the road (camera in hand, of course) and we explored one of the back roads in our neighborhood---there are so many beautiful drives, just stepping out the front door and taking any direction-- & along the side of the road, wild thyme! All of Provence is an herb garden!

No one reads a newspaper quite like a Frenchman! I took this picture, and the street shots, in Manosque, a city a bit further north of us, on the Durance river.
