B&B Salon De Provence Salon-de-Provence

Plan was to stay in Avignon but when we arrived we decided it was too big for us and after driving around the outide of the ramparts of the old city walls - very cool and the main thing we wanted to see - we made our way onwards to Fontaine de Vaucluse which is 20kms past Avignon. We arrived just before dark and found an Aire de Service at the edge of town where settled in for 2 days. The town ...

... English in the entire town. We found our hostel super late at night (and they don't make hostels in France like they did in Spain... no more free internet!). The next morning, we walked into town not really knowing what to see or do. But as we were looking for a quick Petit Dejuner (breakfast) we stumbled upon the Saturday market. We sat at a cafe on the square and had the most amazing breakfast 5 euro can buy if you ...

... stay at this lovely lady&#8217;s home and forward onto Italy from another port<br>2) change destination to another port on Corse where there are more options for forwarding onto Italy<br>3) wait 2 days until there is a direct ferry from Marseille to italy (the one we thought we were on)<br><br>In the end we decided on No. 2. I was actually thankfull for once of Brian&#8217;s obsessive earliness as ...

... the security of this fortress. Brian scoped out several indents where floor beams had been inserted, and hinges for doors had been drilled, as well as a fireplace opening. After the 1830&#8217;s it&#8217;s been used for local bull-fights and has been undergoing extensive renovations. Sandblasters pierced our ears and evidence of new stone was everywhere. Part of me was sad to ...

Thus triggering the descent into insanity. <br> <br> Starry, starry night, <br> Flaming flowers that brightly play.<br> Swirling clouds and violet haze.<br> Reflecting in Vincent&#8217;s eyes of China blue. <br><br>I was so ...

... for a start, is very different, especially for languages. It seems that the French love grammar, and so Russian is becoming very tedious, having lectures on why each letter goes where. The written and spoken lessons are going pretty well though, and the teacher is great, though is mad about pronounciation and accent. This might be wrong of me to say, but when foreigners learn English, do they ever try and do an English accent and pronounce all the words properly? I ...

... and well worth the visit. They run bulls through the town during a festival in October, but not in as wild and dangerous a manner as at Pamplona. My wife and I were here one time and watched the running of the bulls - from a safe distance. From Aigues Mortes, I drove on through fields of lavender, already showing, to Arles. Arles is famous for a number of things: it was founded by Greeks in the 6th century BC, conquered by the Celts, then by the Romans ...

... and start seeing the pics that go along. Now I for one am not all that frantic to look at someone else's travel pictures, but I gotta say, a few of these are good (at least I think so). I particularly like the picture of Oscar Wilde's grave and the view of the Aix Cloister (that I had exactly one minute to appreciate and take). No idea what tomorrow will bring. Right now ordering another vin blanc and watching the Place Richelme buzz along at 9:00 at night, under ...
