Maeva Hotel Les Villages Du Soleil Arles

... 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! <br><br>The town itself is nestled in a valley and is particularly pretty at dusk when rocks take on the colours of the sunset ...

... 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&#8217;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 ...

I&#8217;ve seen in Arles, Vincent had it just right!<br><br> For they could not love you, but still your love was true <br> And when no hope was left inside on that starry, starry, night <br> You took your life as lover often do. <br> But I could have told you, Vincent<br> This world was never meant for one as beautiful as you<br><br> Like the ...

Well what a 24 hours we've had<br><br>Dropped Allen and Deanna at Avignon but we had a quick pitstop first at Chateau Bas next to where we had been living for a week. Amazing that it has been there since BC days...see Deanna's blog for more details<br><br>Then on to Nime (famous for being the home of deNIM) and then Montpellier.

... built by the Romans in around 50 AD to transport water into Nimmes using gravity and water pressure to get it there. The water traveled around 50kms from the source to Nimmes which is no mean feat in those days. Shame really that we can't reverse engineer the technology to take the coastal rainfall to our damns! We dipped our feet into the rather cold river and headed off. Provence is a mixture of Spanish, French and Tuscan influence but I wouldn't tell them that!

... bit of everything but found that I liked maybe half of the dishes. Everyone was so surprised that there wasn't dessert today, but we took care of that. We went to Mezza Luna in the Place du Forum for ice cream. What's new. We made our way back to the IES center and prepared for our translation final. I told Mark to think of the most random word ever because it will probably be on the test. We did the evaluations again which was ...

They blew a fuse there which is probably the worst thing that could happen at a club but a few guys brought out their instruments and started playing. Ryan and I left and on our way home, we ran into a friend that he had made a few days ago. Ryan is the type of person that ...

... shops. Mine had chicken, lettuce, tomato and mayo on a long baguette. With a can of coca-cola light, it was the perfect meal. We met up again at the hotel to go over to the IES center for the first time. On the way, Bertrand took some of us to get cell phones at one of the stores. I thought Jeff's would work but it was too old. I got a brand new Nokia phone with its very own French phone number. It cost me 59 euros but ...
