They agreed on one thing before retiring-they would travel, sniff around at other countries, other lifestyles, and discover along the way which place came closest to "having it all." There they would drop anchor and go with the flow. The going has been good, so much so that these former Washingtonians have decided to make France their permanent home. They chose the city over the countryside and took on the challenges and pleasures of Aix-en-Provence, where they have been doing as the locals do for more than a decade now. The daily markets, the strikes, gypsies, curious villagers, ancient traditions, truffle cheaters, pagan and religious celebrations, secret swimming spots in the middle of Marseilles-it's all there to be suffered and enjoyed. Not to mention an interest in food that borders on the obsessional. Add good weather, a pinch of hedonism, a dose of culture, and it all adds up to that elusive prize: quality of life. Take a ride in the slow lane with TEN YEARS IN PROVENCE, through la France profonde, ancient Roman cities, and that wonderful blend of the old and new worlds that is today's Provence.
