Arrived in Greasque, France....barely. It's a tiny village near Fuveau another small hill town village and about 15/20 mins from Aix en Provence. We arrived on Sunday when buses aren't going to Greasque and a taxi has to come from Aix as the local taxis are off.

Here's the house!!

and the main house...it meanders around the back. It's very comfortable and Coke and Camille are enjoying 'hanging out' and swimming.

Believe it or not but friends from Berkeley (we know them through Oxford school where Camille goes) swapped with a family in Fuveau - like 3 kilometers away from us. We joined Jenes, Monica, Max and Johna for a swim and a delicious dinner.  Their house was fantastic with beautiful views and a great pool.  It was lovely!

The yummy meal....something for every kind of eater - fish, sausage, lamb, tomatoes, fruit, cheese - Fantastique!!  and this family is German so we had lots to talk about after visiting Berlin.

Yesterday we went to Aix. So close we couldn't believe it. We walked through all these little streets. It feels like Italy to me. 

A friendly puppy....  and a fountain of a tree stump and moss growing down the side.

We had a delicious lunch in one of these squares.

This store is full of local treats....and they give you a sample when you walk in.

Trampoline in Aix too!! these guys were happy to jump - again!
