Now that I’ve had time to go through my photographs, I thought I would include a few of the Abbaye de la Celle in Brignoles, where we will stay after our wedding in September.
Our rather tired looking Renault Clio with missing door trim looked right at home next to the Ferrari in the parking lot. I had to point out to the porter that the Ferrari wasn’t ours…
Aude clearly approves of her surroundings!
Frankly, he looks as shocked at his own behaviour as we were… After a few drinks, I was tempted to challenge him to a duel — until Aude suggested that we might not be welcomed back afterwards.

Photo opportunities abound. Matt in front of the same fountain.

The hotel comes complete with old world charm. Or should that be olde worlde charme?
More old world charm. Or someone’s spent too much time at Pottery Barn…
