Bristol Avignon

... over 1.5 million tourists each year as it is the source of a natural spring. It's wierd seeing a fast flowing river and then walking 50 metres "upstream" and there only being a trickle.. and then a bit further and no water... nothing but a big cliff straight up! <br><br>The town itself is nestled in a valley and is particularly pretty at dusk when rocks take on the colours of the sunset ...

... 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 our 1st glass, we saw our fellow taxicab line patrons file in for a drink as well. We then walked around the small city and took in the sights. It was nice, but it wasn´t Nice.<br><br>Later that evening we met up with our friends and enjoyed plenty of wine and a relaxing dinner.

... outside the Casino (he says "hi" to you all) and generally milled around all the super yachts till Jie found the one she wants. It's weird, a good 90% of all the really, really nice super yachts we saw all along the Riviera this week fly the British ensign or some derivative thereof (Isle of Man, Caymans seem to be most popular) so Britannia still ruling the more expensive parts of the waves. We did the touristy trail from the Grimaldi palace ...

... over the Rhone. Just great.

Taylore and i checked into our hotel (the only hostel was outside the city ...
