pink


We rolled out early, while the sky was turning pink, but not to go home. Provence is too beautiful to leave just yet, even though the lavender, poppies, and sunflowers aren't ready to paint the fields yet. We headed south to the cost to visit Pont du Gau Ornitholigical Park. 


Early fog and dew.


Flamingos! We thought we might have to look hard for them, but here they are. Hundreds of giant, honking, pink birds summering in southern France.


They were so comical to watch. We spent a few hours walking the trails at the ornithological park and watching the flamingos comical interactions.


Picnic #1: Quiet roadside


Picnic #2: Under Le Beaux


Eygalleriers:


Perfect timing for beautiful light in this calm little village. I love this photo of Derek.


Mauve-tan roofs.


We found a nice restaurant and decided to stay for dinner...so good.


The end of another beautiful day. I guess we might actually have to head back tomorrow.
