FR-1263600

Since September 2006 I've sent 1499 official cards and received 1503. This official from France is my 1500 received card. These numbers could be higher but there were times when I reduced or even stopped sending officials. 

FR-1263600, sent by Anna.
In the Vaucluse, 35 kilometres from Avignon, Bedoin is a lovely little agricultural village at the foot of Mont Ventoux. Spread out over a large area, it comprises several hamlets all of which are blessed with that Mediterranean climate of sun nearly every day of the year. 
At the top of the Saint-Antonin hill, the baroque church of Saint Pierre, built between 1708 and 1736, which dwarfs all the other buildings with its size and grandeur. 
The village is quite lively; shops, outdoor cafés and restaurants line the main street. And water is everywhere with no less than 15 fountains and a washhouse.
