We are all aware of Peter Mayle’s prolific activity in promoting the
Provence – especially the Lurberon. Now more support for the delights of Provence!
Susan Spano writing in the Los Angeles Times identifies 3 more reasons to love Provence:
1)
APT MARKET – For visitors, it’s a bacchanal of Provencal merchandise, along with inexpensive imported jewelry, clothing and housewares.
2) LE CASTELAS RESTAURANT- eating some of the best food in Provence with your fingers while watching the sun set over the Luberon
3) JANE EAKIN HOUSE IN MENERBES – Her paintings of its people and places were exhibited in galleries all over Europe, even though she never became famous.
Have you more reasons to love the Provence?

One estate agent reports "feverish demand" for apartments and beach houses below €20 million (£17m) in the area – not from Russians but French, Italian and even English families looking for a second home in a quality location".

Vanity strikes again! Shorty French President Sarkozy needs a boost it appears. Not content with high-heeled shoes, he now surrounds himself with vertically challenged supporters strategically postioned behind him for a TV keynote speech (as reported by the Telegraph).
