The Garden Group had a wonderful day out organised by Vivien R, only recently returned from
North America.
We visited the Abbaye de Saint Felix in Gigean (walking group members may remember that we had a walk there some years back), followed by a marvellous lunch at Viv and Alain's home in Sete, for which we thank them profusely. The day was glorious - sun and blue skies, and no breeze, not a whiff of one, and 27C temp.

After our morning's garden tour, we drove to Viv and Alain's home overlooking the sea in Sete.
Viv and Alain entertained us to a marvellous lunch which we ate in the shade outside.

A gorgeous day - many thanks to Vivien for arranging the tour and to both Alain and Vivien for
their warm hospitality.
