We’ve been back in England for a few days, braving la gripe porcine and the sensationalist press stories, which nearly caused us to cancel the trip. Instead we armed ourselves with all sorts of medical wipes and sprays to ward off the flu. Not symptoms yet thankfully.
Our favourite holiday activity is cool bathing which consists of going outside in the rain and revelling in the sensation of being cold. 40 degree heat is fun for a holiday but its not fun to live in and so the slate grey skies of England have been a joy to behold every morning.
Only one more month to go in Provence until things return to normal. The heat and most of the tourists vanish and it’s possible to go to the market without spending half an hour looking for a parking space. Roll on September.
