A break in Varages

A break in Varages
Originally uploaded by Greygriffin.

Eve & I are on our way from Aix-en-Provence to Moustiers-Ste-Marie (near Lac de Ste Croix). We’re taking the back roads, and have stopped for a morning break in a small country town called Varages. We’re sitting in the town square, where the local bar has set up some tables with parasols. The old men of the town are here, chatting away while they drink Cokes and coffees. Eve thinks that it’s much more healthy than the English Sunday lunchtime beer, and it’s true that the old men are slimmer.
