    So grateful you posted this, Robin, I’m thrilled because this video shows Nyons, the little town where I go every summer. Nyons has its own distillery and its shop where essential oils are available for the public to purchase and a wonderful Salon de thé with home made lavender macarons. Do note the Romanesque bridge, the pride of Nyons.

        This video is very well made I must say, fingers crossed you go in the future, those low mountains are also ideal for hikes with your little dog.

    If the the Star Trek transporter was a real thing I’d ask to be sent to those lavender fields.

      😀 And the smell in the air is wonderful. When I arrive the harvest will have been completed but the distillery will be in full swing and the vapours hang in the air. They have a site offering their produits called Bleu Lavande.
