Our last weekend at Mas d’Oscar in Saint-Remy de Provence was spent in town.
Our “voiture” aka our automobile was only moved for a few minutes by the Monsieurs to go get the tank filled for our departure on Monday.
You see the driveway to our “home away from home” is down a narrow, narrow (did I tell you it was narrow) lane with a tight right hand turn around a curved wall and immediately a tight left hand turn ... not good with a larger vehicle!
Our Monsieurs became experts at negotiating the tricky turns!
We used our shanks’ ponies to get around this weekend.
Madame Susan and I headed out on our own for a walk about town.
Join us on our walk ... here’s some what we saw and experienced.
The teddy bears are hanging around ...
We found a very different art gallery ...
A fromagerie ... there has to cheese here for everyone’s taste ...
Cute café/bistro ...
Beautiful home decor shoppe ...
We picked up our few must haves on our shopping list before heading back for some rest and relaxation in the courtyard ... oh maybe we found a few wants too!
Some yummy treats for tonight’s dessert ... each one was delectable, we shared of course.
Did I say rest and relaxation ... mmm, we’ve taught Monsieur Honey a couple of card games.
It was fun, even more so with French cards.

Sunday was another day of doing just a little of this and a little of that.
Monsieur Honey and I headed out early in the “heat” hot temperatures to check out the vide grenier (literal translation- empty the attic) that was happening at the large supermarket’s parking lot.
We weren’t really looking for anything for us ... Monsieur Mark was in search of some “ pastis “ glasses.
We saw lots of various glasses and messaged our travelling partners to let them know and they found their way here later.
Monsieur Mark was successful in his search.
On our return walk we discovered an interesting wine/ liquor shop.
There was a “street market” with various vendors and products.
We stopped at the Domaine de Lagoy and did a tasting of rosés. Delicious!
Time for some Sunday lunch ...Italian today.
Time for some Sunday lunch ...Italian today.
Aperol spritzer to quench the thirst, tempura shrimp with salad and shared pizza ... delicious!
We strolled back home and did a bit of packing.
Tomorrow morning we are on the road to our next destination.
I’ve enjoyed our stay at Mas d’Oscar in Saint-Remy de Provence.
The house was perfect for USA!
The courtyard was a wonderful place to relax day or night.
