Bonnieux Day 1

Travel day!! In which i dread greatly. Unfortunately the train that the group booked was sold out by the time that I got to it, but also i saved 50 bucks on a reservation so it’s alright. My first solo train ride! Which i slept and scrapbooked for most of it. 7 whole hours 😭😭. First was a 3 ish hour train from Barcelona to Cerbére, which lies right at the border of Spain and France, then a 4 hour train from there to Avignon. The original plan had been to stay at Ailish’s family home for our time here, but unfortunately there was a microscopic spider issue so it was no longer suitable to stay in. However, we got to get a tour of her village and of her home as well! It was BEAUTIFUL! And her neighbour had majestic horses (which i took 1 billion photos of) and beautiful farmland. One of her neighbours helped in giving us a place to stay for the night, which was hot (most of the places were built in the 11th (?) century, so they don’t have air conditioning). So many wild cats around that are soooo cute. For dinner, we shared some pizzas with her parents, which was sooo yummy. Oddly, most of the town closed early since it was a chilly evening so it was a struggle to find somewhere to eat, but i was more than satisfied with what we got. Czytaj więcej
