Luberon Part Deux

Up bright and early in Apt and not much going on.

We already saw the stone town of Gordes so next we visited the dirt town of Roussillon.  It's named one of the prettiest towns in France and reminds me a lot of Santa Fe, NM.  It's red ochre and boutiques and beautiful, but not a whole lot there for us.
So then we went to Pont Julien, a Roman stone arch bridge over the Calavon River in the territory of the commune of Bonnieux.  Originally, it was built on the Via Domitia, an important Roman road which connected Italy to the Roman territories in France.  It was used for car traffic until 2005, when a replacement bridge was built to preserve it from wear and tear, amounting to about 2000 years of uninterrupted use.

Moving on from there, we climbed up to the tiny village of Lacoste and found a little slice of heaven.
