First Stop: Arles

The first place that we went after leaving Limoux was Arles. We stayed here for four nights and made it our base from which to visit some of Provence. We spent Christmas Eve here as well. Arles is well known for it's rich Roman ruins. Immediately below are a couple photos of what is left of the Roman theatre.




There is also a really cool Roman coliseum in Arles. They are in the process of restoring it. You can really see the difference between the old and new parts in some of the photos. Also, to this day the coliseum is still used for live bull fights. I really wanted to go see one, but we didn't get the chance.



Dad and I went back to the coliseum at night. There was a full moon that night. I thought this was absolutely that coolest picture with the moon framed by the coliseum. So artistic.














This river, the Rhone, ran right behind our hotel. We parked along it every night.


This is Matt and his sweeeet sheep that I brought him from Ireland. We named him McCallahan.
