We’re on the long road back to the UK now. The car is packed and we intend to drive most of the way tomorrow. Meanwhile, here’s a gallery of all of our visitors. Many people promised to come and visit us before we came to Manosque. We didn’t really think that anyone would.

As always, you can click the thumbnails to enlarge the pictures below. (Clicking the subsequent picture again shows it slightly larger.)
