A Funny thing happened on the way to the Supermarket in Provence

Contributor blog post by Vaucluse Dreamer:

So often we find ourselves chuckling about the odd things involving animals that we’ve seen over the years whilst in Provence including a horse in a flat cap.

A piglet being walked on a lead in Lourmarin.

Or the cat at Roussillon who delights in stretching out & rolling onto its back encouraging visitors to stroke it’s tummy under the sign that asks people not to touch!

…Continue reading here for Julie’s hilarious story of her husband’s innocent trip to the grocery store in Apt, which turned into an adventure with “Scruffy” the dog. This is certainly a Provencal shopping trip that Andy will not forget for some time to come.

Julie Whitmarsh

Julie and her husband Andy started visiting the Vaucluse area 25 years ago & over the years have increased the amount of time they spend there with their growing family. She has a deep affection for the area, finding it is a great place to visit, where the whole family can relax and enjoy time together.

She longs for the day when she can ‘up-sticks’ from her home on Dartmoor & relocate to the Luberon and spend her days cycling, walking, visiting markets & brocante fairs and of course enjoying the local food and drink.

Her blog VaucluseDreamer gives her a space to highlight some of her favourite things about the area from places to visit to particular activities that she and her family all enjoy.

She hopes one day it will be a place where she can share the process of renovating a house in France, but at the moment that will have to wait.
