Finally, after 4 months I felt my lungs and muscles work hard again. We went to a very deserted area, located 800m above the sea level and then climbed to 1100m. Driving from Luberon to the direction of Banon, you soon observe that the vineyard fields are being replaced by lavender fields, that the size of villages is getting smaller and smaller and the distance between country houses is getting larger and larger. The area doesn't posses any of the extraordinary scenic beauty like it does around gorges and rivers but offers a serenity and silence which is so rare nowadays. We walked mostly quietly, united in our happiness. As always sandwiches, coffee and tea were with us and the picnic not only strengthened our power but also helped create the whole experience of the day.
