Koenig Avenue Marechal St-Rémy-de-Provence, Provence, France, 13210, 33-4-90-92-48-07-
... built in the 1st or 2nd Century and held 20,000. It was used for chariot races and gladiator fights and is still in use today during the bullfighting season. Very cool! Forgot to take a photo unfortunately.

Up early to make use of free Wifi - that is Kim watched the sunrise while sitting outside a closed café and scabbing their Wifi! We then we hightailed it out of Arles and towards Spain.
... 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!
The town itself is nestled in a valley and is particularly pretty at dusk when rocks take on the colours of the sunset ...
... didn’t even really resist. They knew the status to being ’Roman’ and that it would bring them instant infrastructure, roads, money, etc.
But enough of all this Roman talk - we’re in France after all! Italy will come when we set sail tomorrow night. For now we’re dining on our last few snipits of cheese, provincial bread and aioli sauce.
... million pound sterling images that were worthless when Vincent was alive.

We didn’t leave Nimes till well after midday; - it was a beautiful day after the thunderstorm of the night before, so we were exploring the old town, and the Roman Arena.
It always takes a while to find a location in a new town, so by the time we arrived outside Le Petit Comptoir (yes outside – after circling ...
... due to the numerous universities there and it is striking just how young everyone is (please note I didn't see any policemen -just no older people!) There area some interesting modern built made to look old buildings and I imagine a lot of Montpellier income is from conferences many, many centres dotted about the place. Now also 100% convinced of total retail globilisation having checked out their Galeries Lafayette and typical 'mall' type shops. It's mostly in little towns where the ...
St Remy de Provence, France kyria... cannot be employed without the FLL looking either idiotic or just outright demented since she was indeed the person who pressed floor 9. A new plan must be developed and quickly... Step One: The Duck Sometimes the most advantageous course of action is a simple course of action perhaps best expressed in the immortal words of Monty Python: Run away. Run away. Most FLLs will be relieved to know that this step requires absolutely no second language skills. To ...
