This long and winding road was built from 1893-1896.
The view is spectacular.
Somehow, it reminded me of the Taroko Gorge in Hualian, Taiwan. But we were on a car instead of a motor.

Saint Jean en Royans IV : We Eat What You Fish
I never like fishing. I lack the patience though I can sit quietly with a book in my hand and a cup of coffee on the table. Guy an Michel planned something and they casually asked me whether I like fishing in the morning when we went to the beautiful Vercor. Haha...but they carried on with their and hid it from me the plan after lunch and brought me to a fish pond.
Well. given it's the fish pond and not the open sea or river, I didn't it will be a big problem and I did my fishing debut in Saint Jean en Royans!
Yeah, the fisher had to kill the fish they got themselves and I did it with a piece of cloth. Just one hit on the head to reduce the sufferring time.
It's not the smile of the killer ok? It's the dinner for us, we fished 3, one for each of us.
The fishes were cleaned by machine.
My only contribution is to peel off the lemon skin in slices, used in preparing the fish. Yummy!!!!

Saint Jean en Royans II : The Gift of Nature
Rose in the garden.
It's basically a small food production!!!! Michel planted lots of vegetables in the garden. Tomato one of them.
Oh... the garden comes with an apple tree as well!!!!!!!!!!! Err.....it's my first time seeing an apple tree. Nope. I didn't get a revelation like Newton did.
Air liur meleleh.....
You can still see the dew....
Can someone tell me what's that?(Pierre : That's radish!!!)
It's prisee!!! Michel even labeled what she grew!!!! 
Rows of tomato......
Err... what's this? I think it's a type of tomato as well. Bell-shaped tomato???
Slurrppppp!!!!!!I remember quite a lot of times when we did the cooking (errr... hahaha... I just help with washing, cutting but not cooking itself), Michel asked Guy to go to the garden and pluck some leaves etc. I like the feeling of that and it feels so warm. Guy and Michel really were a lovely and loving couple. They never fail to amaze me with their generosity and seeing them together threw away all the skeptic thoughts and pre-loaded impression in my mind. When you find the right one, the right one it will be.
