Aix-en-Provence Day 1

We weren't sure what was going to be open because of the Labor Day holiday. However, most touristy things, as well as plenty of restaurants were open. We walked to the old town and looked around a bit. The weather was harsh, with wind and rain, so we checked out some restaurants for later. We found a place to have a coffee, then with better weather, we explored more.
Aix is a charming town with an Italian feel to it. Lots of piazzas, or places, that are totally paved with tile. Not the standard pavement everywhere else we've been. Lots of restaurants, lots of shopping.
We came back later at dinner time for a meal at Cambarou, a lovely restaurant. Our meals were fantastic and the wait staff took good care of us. Later, we walked about the same route as earlier to see if nightlife picked up. Indeed, it did, but perhaps because of the weather, or that we spent nearly 2 hours at the restaurant, things were winding down.
All in all, a good day. Finally.Meer informatie
