Roussillon - revisited

I came to see the red dirt, they used to mine it for making paint pigments. Now it is a show piece and still very beautiful. We paid our admission fee and walked around the red dirt cliffs. It is hard to get here without your own car. We took a bus tour from Avignon and was allowed almost 2 hours to see the cliffs and the little village.









Another delightful and delectable French village, it is colored like the red dirt cliffs near it. It is so pretty.

















































































This is a popular place for artists, they come, sketch, draw and paint. It is so colorful.
I'm on vacation.
