Roussillon Rest Day (o km)
This was originally scheduled as a day to ride around the Luberon part of Provence and look at the small hill towns by bike. However, I think we are wearing down - I know I am.
The logistics have been much harder than I thought they would be. The riding is also very hard at times. You have to be so diligent while riding, as the roads are so small with no shoulders. You can rarely drift along day dreaming. The drivers are almost universally courteous, but things are just somewhat tight.
So, instead we took a little car trip, and looked at the scenery and ancient towns. We saw a lot of very unique sights. We also found some great roads to take bike rides on in the future. Enjoy the pictures!

Gordes, one of the most visited towns in Provence.
This hill top town is really spectacular.

The building to the right is the resturant of our hotel.
It's pretty easy so see why they call it Roussillon. Every thing is some variation of rose or yellow color.
