Day 4- Chateau Neuffe de Pap and Avingnon

 We docked the morning of Day 4 in Avingnon


 Then headed out to the Cheateau Neuffe de Pap wine region for some tastings

 It is like nothing I would have ever pictured for a wine growing region, full of old river rocks. Pretty strange to see the vines growing right out of the rocks.


The drive itself was pretty amazing.



The views from the top of the drive.


















The winery for our tastings or "degustations"

These barrels were probably 8-9 feet across...EACH








Then it was time for a tour of Avingnon





These paintings that look like people are looking out of a building were very popular everywhere we went.












The ceiling of this massive room was amazing, there is not a great way to get a picture of it...










and finally to that famous bridge of Avingnon
a song Cohen knows well, so we did a little dancing for him
