Clos des Papes
Pope's Summer Residence
Also located in Châteauneuf de Pape is the remnants of the summer home of the Pope when the Papacy was in Avignon. It is located on the highest spot in the area overlooking the village and the vineyards. We ran into a few of my buddies on a day bike trip. For lunch we sat in one of the windows of the summer home.

Our Evening Dining
The dining experience in Avigon has been delightful. Of course it all starts with good friends together leading to good conversation. The restaurants have been varied, small and delightful. Last night it was the Restaurant 26. The plate is the chef's recommended appetizer of scallops and beets with a carmelized glaze and a basil sauce on the side.
Continuation of Our Day
The Church of Saint Pierre and the back of the Palais des Papes as we split up to pursue our individual interests.
