Ollioules: 21ieme Fêtes de L’Olivier – Olive Festival
This time I will show you some images from the Olive Festival in Ollioules, Provence, Southern France. It is the second year in a row we visited this charming festival.
As usual we stay with Claudie and Pierre.
Have a taste – Olives of all types and forms and Olive Oil of course
During the festival you can even buy Olive Trees…
You can buy much more than Olive Products – sweets in all tastes
Did you think Honey is Honey? Think Twice: Look at this above.
Look at the different colours – depending on what Flowers the Bees have been in contact with.
It was lots of people from all over that did visit the popular Olive Festival in Ollioules, who takes place first weekend of October each year
OK folks, stay tuned for more wonderful memories from Ollioules and the area around.
Himmelsk or Sky Watch Friday? Yes, it is my other Blog.

Such lovely, lovely photos! I could not resist any of the delicious foods you show here. I love the different honey flavors. They're hard to find in the U.S. but so delicious!
Thank you so much for sharing with us. Much love to you and Anna.
Lovely place, lovely festival and lovely people and friends :-))))
I'm sure you have the most fab time - as usual together with Claudie et Pierre!!!!
(We have been and celebrated my brothers birthday tonight and now we will sleep well and dream about Provence... Goodnight)
Yum! This looks like a wonderful experience. I swear i can taste them.
I remember your visit last year, Tor....These are WONDERFUL Pictures...And everything looks so yummy and beautiful. LOVE all those different kinds of Honey...!
So, what DID you buy, my dear?
It looks so lovely and warm there in the South....I know you and Anna are enjoying that, a whole lot!
As I said to Claudie it looks like Italy there. Although I don't like Olives a festival would have been something for me too ! You must have had a lot of fun !
Hey Tor..thanks for sharing such a nice festival....so colourful too ;D
I love street markets, beautiful photos.
Skønne billeder. Jeg bliver sulten.
How wonderful! Now that would be a festival I would really enjoy. I also love Olives... Looks like a charming little village!
Herlig ... her ar det mye for min smak! Både gastronomisk og ikke minst billedlig! Takk for turen :)

Takk for fine bilder :)
Heisann, heisann!
Hyggelig å gå tur på festival og marked også!
Trenger jeg å pakke varmt tøy? Ser ikke sånn ut her og nå. Jeg drar til Arles på fk fredag - og blir ei uke. Skal guide elever i den romerske bydelen og gå turen der van Gogh malte, sammen med dem. Mye spennende i vente.
art is jok(k)e(n) har foreslått en tur på vinteren også. Får håpe dere har anledning til å være med da. Ente her hjemme fra eller hvor dere måtte befinne dere da.
Kos dere med fellessiden som postlegges kl. 24, og oppdateres etter hvert som bidragene strømmer inn....
Hei og hopp :)
Så ut som dere hadde en herlig tur
