April 27, we took the train from Paris to Tain L'Hermitage where Jane was to attend her Chocolate class at Valrhona. |

Arrival in Tain L'Hermitage - the wine vineyards are not totally green, yet. | The walking bridge from Tain L'Hermitage to Tournon. |
Picture of Tournon. | Jane and I walked around the town on arrival and found this statue - Les Senteurs (The Senses). |
Where Jane was going to spend the next 3 1/2 days learning the fine art of chocolate making. Valrhona got it's name from the Rhone Valley where it is located. | Our hotel. Yes - it is pink. |
While Jane was slaving over a hot temperer, Derrick and I walked all over the place and tasted wine from local vineyards. (except for the one day we got stuck in a COLD rain storm, but that is another story) | We climbed a hill in Tournon and took this picture of Tain L'Hermitage. |
This picture also from Tournon. | If you know me, you know my obsession with mountains. The Alps in the background. |
A quaint picture of Tain L'Hermitage from Tournon. | Tournon from the walking bridge after dinner. |
There were these funky trees with cool bark. | A french scene. |
