Today we visited GORDES, another hilly village

on their market morning. Established in 1031.

We got there early, so they were setting up.

Gordes is a village in the Vaucluse départment in the 

Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region in southeastern France. 

The residents are known as Gordies.

The nearest big city is Avignon; 

smaller cities nearby include Cavaillon.

The stone work in large buildings and homes is amazing.

I went into the oldest church and sat for a while.

I bought some small gifts to take home, and clothes.

On the larger walls were huge black & white posters.

I didn't know the artist but liked what I saw. 

I don't know the artist to credit, but enjoyed them all.

Only two days left, two more villages. 

A smile for Wednesday ...
