The Roosevelt A Coast Hotel Aix-en-Provence

... in devil ears, 1 batman, 1 Spiderman, a copule dudes in masks, 2 girls with just some random fake blood on their face, 3 poorly represented Village people, and a guy who we think was Peter Pan, but he had cardboard fairy wings so we're not sure. All in all, Halloween ended up being a pretty fun night, but we certainly missed being home for this day! Now we are off to the Rhone Valley for some great wine... in a CAR! Stay tuned.

... with: &#8220;the world needs more fools like you.&#8221;<br><br>Even I fluxuate in my thought about what&#8217;s goin on. Most importantly, I live day to day and try to plan out what&#8217;s needed for the immediate future (i.e. food and shelter). Some days I;m on top of the world. I feel healthy and strong, and I&#8217;m exactly where I want to be. Other days&#8230;well today was a day I felt like a ...

... present was some cereal and kidney beans from Amy...we're waiting to experience her famous chilli con carne (hint hint). However, the French don't really 'do' birthday cakes in the same way that we do, so, instead of spending 15&#8364; on an admitttedly beautiful patisserie cake, we've been sticking candles in madeleines and such like, so not all of our birthday traditions are lost!<br><br>As well as some of this quite blatant indulgement, we've also been immersing ...

Bonjour avec Aix-en-Provence Cherie<br>Since the last news we have visited the Cote D'Azur spending time at Monte Carlo and Antibes. We stayed near Antibes at a place called Biot and at night you could hear the seals at nearby Marineland - very strange. It was still quite hot and stickey with more mozzies. Monte Carlo was wall to wall money with billions of dollars in boats and cars. Antibes was similar but it had a lovely old town as well.<br>We arrived ...

... my traveler&#8217;s scurvy, so I&#8217;m feeling better internally, enlightened if not illuminated.<br><br>The only problem is WiFi. I change rooms but still no WiFi, even from a place that advertises it on the door, same with the café. This is getting frustrating. If you don&#8217;t have it, don&#8217;t advertise it. I really don&#8217;t want to have to badger anyone over it, but I&#8217;m running out of options ...

Wow, one week in Provence and so many places to see! What with all the travel literature and fiction depicting grumpy-people falling in love with Provence how does one decide what town to stay in? Our answer was to try to visit them all! But you, you can save yourself some kilometers and instead rely on our handy guide to the many petit villes that all officially (yes, there is an official designation) or unofficially vie for the coveted Most Beautiful Towns ...

... for viewing kangaroos. There is some excellent whale watching near some of the best wineries in NZ. Especially in the Morington peninsula and even more so in Margaret River. One can fine far better surfing than all the other places added together - so Jeff's peculiar take on wine country activities would really lean towards here. As far as finding farm produced quince or lavender sachets forget it though. Bordeaux. Great for biking if you want to ...

... in French by the owner who had opened the gate for someone else, but was equally happy that it was us. She realized that we were not French by the blank looks on our faces when she expected a response, and she switched to her native New York accented English. Turns out she met her husband, who is a local in the States, and they eventually decided to return to Aix and start this B&amp;B about 3 years ago. She showed us to our ...

... except for one, fairly big problem: In order to start this new program in Aix en Provence, I had to leave Dijon 2 weeks before finals, and no finals, no grades and no "diplome" from CIEF. This bothered me for a while but I knew that many American students leave the program before finals so I called up my study abroad coordinator. She told me that I needed to get a certificate drawn up to prove that I attended CIEF from the main office and that that ...
