The Circus came to Trèbes after we left . . . by Beausoleil

Crossing the Durance River in the rain by Beausoleil
The valley of the Durance river is amazing. There is a lot of industry but there is stunning scenery too. There are beautiful villages perched on the surrounding hills and the river has worn a wide valley for the wandering water.

Plan d’Orgon - Église Notre-Dame-de-Beauregard way up on the hill by Beausoleil
Driving from Mollégès to nearly anyplace north, we had to go through a town called Plan d'Organ. The most notable sight was a monastery at the top of a giant rock hill just south of the town. There are huge rock cliffs and the church is perched at the very top. There is a road up and fabulous views from the garden but the road is not for the faint-hearted. It is a very narrow one lane with no guard rails, solid rock straight up on one side and solid rock straight down on the other side.
