The airport in Colombo, Sri Lanka, where I had a layover between Singapore and Paris.
A French bulldog - in France. What are the odds?! I saw a number of people traveling with their dogs on the train.
The TGV (high-speed) railway station at the Charles de Gaulle airport in Paris. These trains have a top speed of 200 mph, and they're smooth as silk. I've been on a MUNI bus in San Francisco that felt like it was going 200 mph, but it just needed shocks.
A hallway in my hotel in Avignon. It's a converted 16th century Jesuit seminary.
The hotel in Avignon.
The hotel in Avignon.
The main square in Avignon.
The "Palais des Papes" - the Place of the Popes. Construction was started in 1335 and was completed in 20 years.
Old and new. A statue of an elephant balancing on his trunk..
A big, but temporary, ferris wheel outside the old walls of Avignon.
A lovely Avignon street scene at late dusk.
Watching the World Cup at a cafe open to the street.

The courtyard of the hotel in Avignon.
The restaurant at the hotel, with the courtyard to the left. They did a beautiful job of fitting the glass into the old arches.
A candy shop.
A church service in Avignon.
A sign on the door of the church.
The small village of Gordes, not far from Avignon, where I'm staying now for a few days.
A twisty lane in Gordes. You can see a car parked up the lane.
Gordes.
Flowers at the hotel.
A panorama photo of Gordes and the surrounding countryside, made of four photos stitched together (with Canon software, if anyone wonders.) See a larger version here.
The photos are also here:

Wish I were there!
OMG! It's so beautiful, like a dream :) One day, I'll go there. Gorgeous pics as usual. Hope you feel much better now.

That last shot could be India - just paint the buildings blue or something and maybe add a wee bit of brown to the skyline... paradise!
