Dang Dennis, that was a virtual tour of Provence - thank you!

I ate the best meal I've ever had, at Oustau de Baumaniere, which is a hotel
& restaurant that hangs off the side of the cliffs of Les Baux. It's been
quite a while since then, but looking at the web site it looks like not much
has changed other than the prices.
