... tour aux Baux-de-Provence, où nous nous sommes mariés Sabine et moi il y a déjà 6 et demi. Le temps de ré-apprivoiser la conduite manuelle et de traverser St-Rémy-de-Provence puis les Alpilles et nous sommes rendus à destination.

We learned a lot about castle defense, they had replicas of catapaults and battering rams. The battering rams actually had a ram's head on the end, hence the name.
