An Afternoon in Avignon
Just a one nighter in the picturesque Provencal town of Avignon, which

A Visit to the Palace of the Popes
... expensive. with the current Euro crisis I can't see President Hollande throwing any money in this direction for the project. Avignon is a beautiful city. About the size of Launceston it has 89,000 people. Feels very much like home to us. No hustle and bustle, very friendly. I couldn't find the PO so an older Avignonite lady took me three blocks to it.
