Pleasant times cycling in France.

Day 2 on the bike was to Pont du Gard, a Roman aqueduct built around 50AD, west of Avignon. It is a massive structure, built to supply water for the town of Nimes. It was always going to be a highlight of the trip.

Day 3 was on the east side me of the Rhone. After a ride alongside the Rhone, the important first stop was the boulangerie at Barbentane gateaux were popular. From there, we headed to the Abbaye Saint-Michel de Frigolet for our lunch stop and on to Boulbon for a look around town and time for a crème glacée.

This part of France is known for bushfires. From the boat, we saw 4 water bombers flying one behind the other to scoop water from the Rhone almost beside us.Okumaya devam et
