La Garde Adhémar
Haven't departed yet but though I would add a little about this place called La Garde Adhémar which was a particularly nice the other day. It is a little walled cluster of medieval buildings on a hill. This in itself not uncommon in France really, but this one was particularly lovely and a soothing balm against the noise of the Rhône valley (which is basically a conduit of main roads, an autoroute, TGV line, power stations) above which it is set; above and apart. There is quiet old simple church, whose door opens out onto the noise of the valley and so to enter you must symbolically turn your back to it, have a quiet moment, then turn back around to face the modern world again. There is also a herb garden on a terrace beneath a high wall (http://www.panoramio.com/photo/11916630). Overall, well worth a stop (and worth pushing up the steep windy lane that goes up to it) if you are passing.
