• Do nothing day in Nimes

    October 24, 2024 in France ⋅ ☁️ 63 °F

    We like to set aside a day every week or two as a “do nothing day”, which is what it sounds like. Nothing planned. Hopefully, they coincide with a rainy day which makes us more compelled to hang out, read, nap, do laundry, etc.
    Today was that day of our 6 days in Nimes. CJ is feeling a little under the weather, so I went out for a walkabout.
    Went to a few new places, Hôtel de Ville, Muséum d'histoire naturelle, and Brocante hunting. When we were in Aviano, our friends shared their list of the better thrift stores. Since then, we’ve been on the hunt to find thrift stores (brocante en francais) on our trip. The 4 within walking distance weren’t really what we wanted. Clothing only, major appliances or closed. We are looking for kitschy kitchen stuff, a fancy rolling pin, moka/espresso maker, maybe something else as a memory of this trip. The hunt continues…..
