... in devil ears, 1 batman, 1 Spiderman, a copule dudes in masks, 2 girls with just some random fake blood on their face, 3 poorly represented Village people, and a guy who we think was Peter Pan, but he had cardboard fairy wings so we're not sure. All in all, Halloween ended up being a pretty fun night, but we certainly missed being home for this day! Now we are off to the Rhone Valley for some great wine... in a CAR! Stay tuned.
Aix-en-Provence, Provence, France tommcatt... with: “the world needs more fools like you.”<br><br>Even I fluxuate in my thought about what’s goin on. Most importantly, I live day to day and try to plan out what’s needed for the immediate future (i.e. food and shelter). Some days I;m on top of the world. I feel healthy and strong, and I’m exactly where I want to be. Other days…well today was a day I felt like a ...
Marseille, Provence, France 2totango... poor university residences, the state subsidise the university restaurants and canteens. Friday, for example, I had couscous, carrots, runner beans and a beautiful piece of fish, followed by a piece of bread, a slice of tarte aux pommes and a small bunch of grapes, for 2,90€. Aixellent. Just need to balance the mentalities of trying to get a good grade, but at the same time knowing that this semester is only worth 3% of my whole degree, so it's time to relax before ...
Aix-en-Provence, Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur, France cft89Bonjour avec Aix-en-Provence Cherie<br>Since the last news we have visited the Cote D'Azur spending time at Monte Carlo and Antibes. We stayed near Antibes at a place called Biot and at night you could hear the seals at nearby Marineland - very strange. It was still quite hot and stickey with more mozzies. Monte Carlo was wall to wall money with billions of dollars in boats and cars. Antibes was similar but it had a lovely old town as well.<br>We arrived ...
Aix-en-Provence, Provence, France falkewindMarseilles is a great city to get lost in. It may even be a great city to find yourself in. Streets branch off at acute angles that leave buildings on corners sucking in their bellies and hanging on for dear life. They probably mark the spots where some ancient forebear- let's call him 'Desmond’- manned a barrow in the marketplace and the rest is history. The grid plan came later or elsewhere. This is more like a ...
Marseille, Provence, France hardiek... additional note of warning: it seems that the brothers don't want their visitors to enjoy any unnecessary comforts or amenities either. There were inexplicably no toilet seats in an otherwise modern bathroom.<br><br>Note to the contemplative: If you wish to temporarily join the Cistercian's community of prayer for a while, the monastery has guest quarters if you write to Frere Hotelier.<br><br>We thought we could fit ...
Bonnieux, Provence, France 3beansabroad... the outside of the cloister looking in. Apparently Granet missed the tour too. Very funny!<br><br>The sweet shops are so beautiful. Every little candy, every tea biscuit is a small work of art and they are displayed so elegantly and offered in sophisticated and attractive containers and arrangements. Each shop is special and feels like Mary Poppins might be there. We so wanted to buy cookies or caramels or calisson d'Aix or chocolate olives or something, but at ...
Aix-en-Provence, Provence, France 3beansabroad... where the man needs two women to scrub him down, rinse him off, then… hmmm, it’s starting to sound better. Every time I think of a bidet, I think of Henry Miller’s Tropic.<br><br>My hotel apparently even has a language test, which I barely passed. First she tells me she has no room, and then changes her mind when I inquire about the next day. The only problem is Internet. WiFi is not standard in anything less than $100/night and no ...
Marseille, Provence, France hardiek... sun! This might sound weird, but yesterday the sun in Pisa gave me a bad sunburn on my chest. Today during lunch in the outdoor café, there was ONE seat in the sun. This was not obvious until after the clouds parted and I had sat down! More sunburn for me! (I am beginning to look a bit like a lobster!) Steph's Daily Recap Highlights: Ah, free time to look around. We've hardly had any! Lowlights: There was a ...
Marseilles, France rhillaryjGood to finally reach the South Coast of France. Caught our first glimpse of the Med as we came over the hills just to the north of the Cote D'Azur. A couple of nights here...busy but quiet and friendly campsite. Took a drive along the coast to St Tropez and Cannes....after about 1 hour in an almost non-moving traffic jam, headed back to St Raphael and hit the beach for a swim and some sun....luvverly.
