Nimes exploration

The market Les Halles is indoors and large, all the produce looked great. We purchased from a number of sellers, croissants, baguette, sausage, cheese Comté, fruit and veg. Heirloom tomatoes, figs, lettuce,...

Toured the arena, this is very well presented with a detailed audio description. Had a picnic lunch at the side of the canal that leads to the gardens. After lunch we walk through the gardens, Jardin de la Fontaine, enjoying its fountains and the Temple of Diana. Citron sorbet and coffee ice cream before visiting the Maison Carrée. Beer o'clock. John, trekked back the the gardens to the Tour Magne and back across to the Porte de France.

Dinner was back to The Palmier, this time the seafood platter; fresh oysters, fresh mussels, prawns and sea snails. You can keep the sea snails. Followed by a very nice Camargue bull stew a local speciality.Weiterlesen
