Wow! What a sight greeted us from the terrace this morning. Swirling white mist over Séguret and brilliant blue sky above. And the Patrouille zooming through it all.
We set off towards Beaumes for a stroll along the canal with the intention of doing a there and back with coffee at Le Siècle. But no sooner were we over the boundary into Gigondas than we were in full fog! No sign of blue sky or sky of any colour for that matter!
A quick about face and we drove back to the light and Rasteau. The walk was glorious as always but you could see the pall of gloom still hanging over Beaumes even at midday. Odd.
It is hot! We had a sandwich at the bar and the sun is burning. Bu still a young woman appeared, shivering in puffer jacket, boots and shawl!
