ARLES

Dylan, Reese and I had a great visit to Arles with Soledad, Clara and Lea. It is only a 30 minutes drive from Nimes. Now I know where to find all of the American tourists in Provence! It wasn't too crowded despite the amazing photography exhibit that is going on. Arles, which sits on the Rhone river is the home town of Christian Lacroix, where Van Gogh painted many of his famous paintings, has a Roman colliseum and the grossest toilet Reese and I have been in while is France. And that is saying a lot because the public toilets here are pretty bad! After saying "Emergency! I have to pee!" We went to the public toilet off of the square next to the church and Reese said, "I can hold it!"

It was pretty hot and so Dylan and Reese cooled off in the fountain. yuck. Pretty sure there were pigeon feathers in there as they splashed water on their faces...
