Pont du Gard

Today is Sunday so everything is 'more' closed including the supermarket selling the water! So we set off after talking to Luke and the boys and drove to Pont du Gard. This is a beautiful Roman bridge crossing the Gardon River and it is very very well maintained. Built by the Romans (of course) and then upgraded by Napoleon, it was a great site to see on a lovely morning - but it is certainly getting hotter quickly. On the way home we stopped at Collias, which was actually ho hum and then we also did some shopping at the Carrefour on the way home. Next we walked down to our corner and had a great lunch at 'La Bolee' which is a creperie. We had delicious galettes and Phil & Craig had the extra crepes for dessert. Long rest was needed in the hot afternoon! Plus planning time. This evening we had a humid walk around areas we haven’t yet seen including the cathedral.Read more
