Hunting for Roman Remains - Part I

An Eclipse in Roman Gaul Legend has it that Rome was founded by the twin brothers Romulus and Remus, descendants of the Trojan throne, who were raised and nurtured by a she-wolf. It was with this beast-like prowess that the Roman Empire was founded. Almost 3,000 years later, all that we have left of that splendor are the ruins of their brilliant craft, which is what we sought to understand a little more. That was how we booked a quick trip with Davros Tours to southern France where, rumor has...

So much potential

... well deserved wash. It took some scrubbing to get 5 weeks worth of dirt off him but he sparkled once we were done :)
Another longish drive got us to Arles where the plan was to stay for 2 nights as it was home to van Gogh and lots of Roman ruins. We got a good park on the Rhone River just outside the city walls but the city itself made us feel a little uneasy and something was not quite right. The place was ...

Rome...?

... than the amphitheater, it was a semi-circular shape and only seated 10 000. Not much remains but 2 columns, 6 bits of columns, and piles and piles of rubble with fantastic carvings on them. It’s amazing to think of a nation who worked so ***********quer other lands. And not just conquer, but build amazing structures, theaters, coliseums, walls, and aqua-ducts. And other ...

Starry, starry, night.
Paint your palette blue and grey.
Look out on a summer’s day,
With eyes that know the darkness in my soul.

Arrived in picturesque provencal France - immortalized by the many artist’s who have lived here over the years capturing the soft light, countryside and charming towns. Arles is our destination ...

Jinxed

... people for a cab. And waited. And waited. Finally, we got sick of waiting and I took the hotel directions over to a bus driver and via a short game of charades, got him to determine if his bus would get us to our destination. He indicated it would with a short walk, so we hopped on the bus and rode it into town. Our hótel was about a 7 minute walk from the bus stop and we entered to check in. We introduced ourselves ...

Sur le Pont etc

... the wind to walk across the bridge in the evening to Avignon for dinner. This morning we went on a wine tour (I know, but it is too hard to resist) around the Cotes du Rhone with Phillipe, a very competant and helpful local guide. We ended up at Chateauneuf du Pape drinking wonderful reds which has been a wine hightlight of the trip - the village has the most amazing view of Provence ...

Two Fine Meals

... mine a variety of glaces including licorice, topped with finely shaved licorice. The waiter explained when we were ordering that the chef considered cooking to be an art, and in the manner of a painter, he arranged the food as though it was on a palette. Hence the name of the restaurant.

The one with la in-TER-net & la lame keyboard.

... differences only got weirder and wilder as we continued on.

We headed back to the camp as it was getting dark, and on our way came across this random little street band playing Michael Jackson. Pretty funny given the guy's French accent. Then got to take in the gorgeous views looking back at town and the Palace of the Popes as we crossed the river back to the campsite.

In the next exciting episode we're off to bustling, boiling Barcelona!

What is it about French geese?

... bridge deck located 270 metres above the River Tarn. It was extraordinary to behold - surreal in fact - and naturally can be seen from miles away. By nightfall we were still without a bed for the night and we were getting hungry and tired and a wee bit anxious as our adventuring had taken us off track and off schedule and it looked like this could be a long night on the road to Perigueux. We decided to take a detour to see what we could find in the little village of Conques. According to ...
