Aix en Provence

The lavender fields were not yet in bloom in Provence, however we were lucky enough to hit the flower market in Aix on our drive home. The lilacs, poppies and peonies were amazing and the air was so fragrant - better than the perfume factory!

We wandered around the market and then found the food marche. Everything seems to be in season now and the fresh peas, strawberries and tomatoes were delicious to sample.
