Note: In Aix, supposedlym the Hotel Le Pigonnet is very nice.
The Luberon area is lovely and the small towns delightful. All food is good everywhere. Nimes, St. Remy and Avignon are great. There are wonderful Roman ruins. Make sure you try Pastis while sitting in a small hill town. I enjoyed the lavendar museum. Doug thought it was just ok. If you have time, try REAL Marseilles boullabaise. The fish soup is excellent. We also enjoyed the Calmarges area. Highlights were:
Picasso Museum in Antibes
Glass Blowing demonstration in Biot
Roman history in Nimes and St. Remy
Popes Palace in Avignon
Wine tasting and shopping and scenery in Les Baux
former studio of Paul Cezanne in Aix
Arles is fun to walk around
town of Gordes..lovely
