We awoke bright and early Sunday morning (or at least 4 of us did) and headed to the local market at Pellissane, about 15 mins away. It turned out to be a much large market that we expected - lots of produce, bread, cheese, meats, rotisserie stands plus lots of clothing and other local items.
We had a great time - the local melons from Cavaillon were incredibly sweet. And there were cherries, apricots, plums, peaches and other beautiful local fruit.
After the local market, we had to stop by the supermarket again, especially since they close at 12:30 on Sundays. Apparently buying 48 beers yesterday was not adequate ;)
In the afternoon, we headed to Isle sur la Sorgue, a pretty town in the Luberon known for its antique market and watermills. A lovely outing topped by ice cream on the banks of the Sorgue river.
A side note on laundry: the washer takes 2 hours to run a cycle and the most effective drying solution is the old fashioned laundry line. Oh well, can't have everything...
