Villa Colmas Avignon

... 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 ...

... and Rhone. Built in 90 AD it&#8217;s hard to imagine all the events that have taken place in this building. Walking around and around, I tried to imagine it filled with 20 000 screaming fans as gladiators ripped apart animals, but it was hard. From Medieval times to the 1830&#8217;s, it was bricked up and used as a fortified city. 212 housed and 2 churches made their home ...

... 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 ...

... and out of Lyon with minimal angst. Picked up a couple of bottles of wine at the market, a Bordeaux and a white.<br><br>The drive down to Lyon took longer than expected, and this doesn't bode well for our return trip from Nice to Paris, which we had calculated would be about 9 hours. Much more than that is going to make that a VERY long day.<br><br>We found the hotel in Avignon, Les Cubes, right off the bridge in Villenueve les Avignon. It's a ...

... so our programs are actually pretty similar. This is why I find Kristin so interesting, not to mention how hard she works to keep everyone in my study abroad program happy including giving unlimited knowledge about traveling throughout Europe. Anyways, we went to the wine and cheese tasting in the new office. It was pretty much a really nice apartment turned into an office and relaxing space for us students. We tasted five different types of wine from all ...

... that we have seen but it is a lovely place with so much around here. The best aspect has been the house which has been brilliant. There is plenty of space for all of us and being right on the edge of the town and off the road has made it a peaceful oasis to come back to. We couldn't have asked for a better place. In saying that, we are looking forward to seeing the sea tomorrow and continuing on to something a little different again. We have a couple of ...

... called Fragonards. Had a tour of the perfume-making facilities which was really interesting, but the smell was incredibly overpowering, I had a really bad headache and burning nostrils by the time we got through. Definitely not recommended for anyone with hayfever... The gift shop was really good, with really cheap French perfume - I didn't buy any though, by the time I had smelt so much different stuff ...
