Central 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 ...

... and Rhone. Built in 90 AD it&#8217;s hard to imagine all the events that have taken place in this building. Walking around and around, I tried to imagine it filled with 20 000 screaming fans as gladiators ripped apart animals, but it was hard. From Medieval times to the 1830&#8217;s, it was bricked up and used as a fortified city. 212 housed and 2 churches made their home ...

... to wander around this town ad see the exact places that are pictured in famous works. It&#8217;s amazing how much closer you can feel to a person just knowing you&#8217;ve been to the same places. But of course, 120 years later things have changed. Buildings are gone, skylines have changed, and 20th century influence is everywhere! Not quite as romantic ...

... of star fruit. It was lovely. Mine looked a little like breakfast cereal, but it was wonderful: chocolate raviolis in a white chocolate sauce with flambeed banana ice cream served on the side. The raviolis were garnished with petit strawberry and a yellow raspberry. It was all just perfect and a superb choice for our big dinner out. Recommend highly! At $27 Euro each, it was a steal compared to every place around it.<br>

... fondue as I have been know to have a weakness for it. I am pleased to report that that evening Steve and I succeeded in eating an ungodly amount of cheese to the point we both went rather red in the face and developed a cheese hangover that set in for the next few hours. This in normal circumstances would have been uncomfortable but for us we were going straight from the restaurant onto a night train to Venice... For those who have not had the pleasure of ...

... incat sa ne integram in prezentul nici unuia din aceste locuri si sa experimentam cum ar fi sa facem parte din ele si, de aceea, nici nu ne frustram degeaba. Ne bucuram la maxim de fiecare stimul primit si il procesam insetati, bucurosi sa fim doar degustatori de momente si imagini... E aproape ca si cum am avea sansa de a face un rezumat, un index al locurilor, un rezumat care te imbie sa vrei "sa citesti toata cartea".  

... to indicate where to go so we and another couple had to go to the car entrance, shrug our shoulders as if to say...where now? She understood and pointed towards a large white modern building in the distance towards which we now walked, still wondering what it was that we were headed for. We entered a sort of plaza where there were ticket prices on signs, an outside eating area, a museum and a theatre. I was not too happy at the prospect of paying to see another bloody bridge ...
