Yesterday morning we took the boys for a final walk around the winding lanes of the village. This included a stop for ice-cream, naturally. It was also a last chance to view the village from the opposite side of the gorge and enjoy the beauty of the stone towers and houses of Gordes hanging on to the side of the hill.

After an afternoon by the pool and watching butterflies the day ended with a magnificent meal on the patio in the company of family and friends.
