Arles

We spent the day yesterday in Arles, or the Little Rome as they call it. It has a colliseum, theater, and used to have a forum and circus as well as baths. It was really great! We also took a tour about Van Gough and the mental assylum he stayed in here. We´ve got to catch a bus so I´ll try and write later.

Slow connection

The connection on the boat is slow so we will publish pictures as we can.

Yay! We have WiFi

Well, it's been a hectic couple of days but it's been mostly fun. The flight from SL to Paris was nice except for the cat next to us that meowed for the entire 9+ hours. From Paris it was a short flight to Nice. It was rainy and foggy on the ride from Nice to Monte Carlo where we stayed at the Fairmont hotel over looking the sea. It is a very beautiful city. They were preparing for the Grand Prix which runs right out front our hotel. Monday morning we took a bus tour along the French Riviera to Nice and then spent a couple of hours walking around the old town. Very neat. The afternoon was spent on a bus to Port St. Louis where we boarded our home for the next week or so. We're having a wonderful time and hope you're all doing well also.
