... all. The gas was turned off and had to be turned back on by the city. Let's just say that my bathing rituals became slightly...unorthodox. First of all, I'd only shower every other day. When I did shower, I did so with my new best friend...the bidet. I've always laughed at those things and sometimes even peed in them as a sign of disrespect towards the silly apparatus. But the bidet is a wonderful invention when you are not too keen on ...

What a waste of a day...

Go to Nimes and the national parks people said..... we ended up at a campsite way out of Montpellier and the highlight of our day had been the supermarket!!!!

The national park was lots of farm type marsh land... not what we had imagined. Nimes seemed pretty and lots of well preserved Roman things but the traffic was a nightmare and too hard to park so we kept driving with a plan to go out in Montpellier that ...

... since Susan and Brett last visited, but at €18.00 each, plus wine and wonderful coffee, it is extraordinary value.

Alison sat outside with one of the waiters while I paid the bill, and explained that we were from Nouvelle Zelande. The waiter replied that there had been two people from New Zealand having lunch the day before and several the previous week. So the word must have got around. Next time we might have to reserve.

... found lunch, which was good before we were starving. Part of lunch was a raspberry tart that was so good that I didn't even bother to have gelato today. Unbelievably good. Having admired several churches and the temple, we moved down the street to the Coliseum where we took a lengthy audio tour which described the evolution of gladiator contests from the first century through the 7th. Today the venue is home to bull fighting.

... such a huge amount of confidence to travel around Asia. I know that Spain is a little more tame than Asia, but I know that now I can be alone and I will be okay. I had never been truly on my own and I was really scared about it, but now, I embrace the opportunity. I believe everyone should travel alone, male or female, just to see what it's like. This just may be the most liberating experience of my life...so far.

... qu'il y avait beaucoup de monde de monuments. Ils ont vu les deux lignes de tramway: "c'est comme un train dans la ville".
Le but était de comparer Montpellier et Cotonou pour se rendre compte de ce qui fait partie de leur identité de ce qui est étranger. Ce travail servira pour l'adaptation du conte du petit poucet à leur culture comme nous l'avons fait avec les enfants de l'école Heidelberg. Un paysage se constitue en effet de tous les détails précis du quotidien.

Pour finir nous ...

We’re so ...

... is open and no one is about (sadly not even French markets to explore), we grab an early dinner (afraid that all would close early) and chill out and watch American movies in French...trying to figure out the story line, quite a challenge. Back to Toulouse to spend the afternoon with Michel and Myraim, and a beautiful lunch overlooking Place Du Capitole, and wander down by the river to Point Neuf Bridge, one last time before heading home.

... lights, disco balls, and some pretty sweet techno music. 11. Travel! I'm going to Switzerland next weekend and my train ticket was less than $120 round trip. hahahaa. And it might be cheaper, we think the people at the Gare (train station) screwed us, so we're going back tomorrow. Which leads me too: things that make me question the French: 1. Stupid people at the Gare, not helpful, at least with ...

... its not worth freaking out about yet, somebody may have found it in the airport, bus, trainstation, tram or internet cafe and it may be as simple as inquiring and picking it up tomorrow. So I side stepped the fit of the screaming mee mees and soon went to bed exhausted from the trials of the day. This morning I woke up promptly at 9:15 just in time to miss my free breakfast. After searching for phone numbers with the help of a french speaking Columbian (yes, I am the only ...
