June 17, 2016

Apt, Vaucluse, France
41 years ago today we were married at Willow Meadows Baptist Church in Houston, Texas.  We never thought we'd make 41 and now we're hoping for 42 and more.  So to celebrate we decided to do something different this year by trying a restaurant in Apt instead of driving all the way over to Bistrot du Paradou where we have spent many an anniversary but we have decided to just postpone our celebration at the bistro until next week.  So for the actual date we went to La Platane right in the middle of the town.  We arrived at our appointed time of 12:30 for lunch beginning with a demi of rose, followed by a large salad with ham and cheese before our main course of fish and followed by Isle Flotante (merengue floating in custard with almonds).  Unfortunately it was not memorable and no photos.  But we had a good time, the staff was very friendly and attentive and we enjoyed each other's company like we normally do.  The town was deserted when we left the restaurant as the shops had not reopened after the lunch period.  So we strolled around a bit and then made our way back to the house for a much deserved nap.
So a wonderful anniversary!
