Montpellier Day 3 - Nimes

Today is a better weather day, but we're both still not feeling our best. We thought it would be wise to take advantage of the probable best weather during this leg to go over to Nimes and check out that city.
There's a lot of well maintained Roman ruins here. We visited the arena, which is probably 75 percent intact. There is also a Temple remaining, although it's seen many iterations of fun tion throughout it's 1000 years of existence. We found a nice pizza lunch and headed up the large hill, with a Roman tower on top. There is a large park with ponds and statuary here before you go up the hill. It's quite beautiful and the day was perfect for viewing the sites.Read more
