This week Mirabel friends,, Olivier and Sue, took me to see the lavender fields in full bloom. It was glorious! These fields are located on a lovely small road just outside of Vinsobres, 5 km away. We spent hours meandering through row after row of perfect purple blossoms, drinking in the fresh lavender scent. Legions of bees buzzed among the flowers while cicadas sang their distinctive song from trees nearby. It was amazing to see how the lavender thrives in the very rocky soil. A memorable morning outing! We couldn’t resist taking picture after picture. Here are a few to give you an idea. –Dory
