Day 11 Lourmarin

Got up this morning and did what I've done every morning since we got here - walk up to the Boulangerie and pick up bread and something a little sweet. Granted it's not a lot of exercise, but it is almost 50 yards from the front door. There's not much better than a baguette and a tartelette to get the day started. And the day was a do nothing day as there was a consistent downpour all day. So we just mostly sat around the apartment and read with a rather long lunch excursion down to Cafe L'Ormeau. To get there we didn't even have to go out in the rain. For lunch I had calves liver and french fries, but Sylvia made the big score with a Pot-au-Feu , which is a traditional Provence dish of boiled meat and vegetables. This was chicken, beef, and lamb with a clear broth, and it was sooo good. We sat around the cafe for awhile before going back to apartment to wait out the rain, which never stopped.  Tomorrow's another day and the rain's supposed to let up. We had plenty of time to decide what to do tomorrow, which of course we didn't.
