Jules Cesar Arles

... rain finally stopped after nearly a week so we were able to enjoy some out of Scooby time!<br> <br>Saturday 7 Nov<br>Forecasted for rain today but it held off until late afternoon which gave me time to replace the washer in the gear box and for Kim to go for a run, which she was hankering for as she had been getting a little cabin fever of late due to the rain and lack of exercise/time outside!

... didn&#8217;t even really resist. They knew the status to being &#8217;Roman&#8217; and that it would bring them instant infrastructure, roads, money, etc. <br><br>But enough of all this Roman talk - we&#8217;re in France after all! Italy will come when we set sail tomorrow night. For now we&#8217;re dining on our last few snipits of cheese, provincial bread and aioli sauce.

... not know how. <br> Perhaps they&#8217;ll listen now. <br><br>But what a sad story of a man impassioned by his art, yet rejected by all around him. To the point where only his brother befriended and supported him. Only selling 2 paintings during a lifetime, and even those that are given away ended up on hen-house doors and shot up by young passersby ...

Like Nimes, Arles is a small town with a number of Roman ruins. Arles was also inspiration for Van Gough but nothing neither his art nor much of inspiration can be found. <br><br>Tourist info tells me that the hostel does not open until 5 PM, 6 hours later. Fortunately, 1 hotel does provide bag check service. Arles is along a wide river and has docking facilities suggesting that this was once a major port. Now, steps approach the water and fade.<br ...

... enjoyed squid that was so tender it melted in your mouth. Mains arrived I opted for one of my fav's Lamb cooked perfectly and encrusted in herbs Chuong went for steak. All accompanied with a red from Provence. However in our rush to get out the door to explore a little of Arles and eat we didn't even think about dress code so were rather under dressed in this cool little place especially Chuong in his boardshorts! Strange sighting of the evening with the ...

... up when it got a little unbearable and went to lunch. We ate at La Belvedier. I had my favorite salad nicoise and we splurged on a sundae. I had a brasilian. It was pretty good, but not my favorite. We went back to the beach and took the after lunch nap. Karen, Kacie and I braved the cold water and played in the huge waves of the day. They were a nice change from the calm cold waters ...

July 14th, 2007 What a day market day is. I woke up early to meet Ginger and Kacie for a little it of shopping. Today I would find all of my souvenirs before leaving the market. That didn't happen. I got a lot of shopping done but we ran into Marie-Anne and she said Katie would be flamenco dancing in the Space Van Gogh so we went to watch her. That took up a lot of my shopping time and ...

June 15th, 2007 It felt so good to sleep for more than 3 hours. We all woke up and got ready for the day. Breakfast was served in the lobby area of the hotel. It was a buffet style breakfast with a bunch of typical French breakfast foods. There were croissants, slices of French bread, jellies, cherries, a type of granola cereal and some yogurt. The only thing that threw me off a little was the sliced turkey. I had some ...
