Lorgues

We are spending a week in an apartment in the medieval part of Lorgues. The beautifully renovated apartment has one steep flight of stairs to the front door, one flight of stairs to the living area and another winding set of stairs to the bedroom. We will be able to work off the cheese and wine without any problem at all. The apartment is lovely, but the landlord didn't turn the hot water system on until we came so it was cold showers the first night.

We went for a walk around the town. There are still seven towers, one an olive oil mill, two gates and many fountains.
