Avignon 2017

By | May 17, 2017

Avignon has lived up to expectations.  Our AirBnB is spacious and in the shadows of the Palais des Papes.  The huge doorway from the narrow street belies the space behind the facade. The modern additions of bathroom and toilet to a fourteenth century building add some quirkiness to the place but it’s spacious and quiet.  

The tourist throngs don’t seem so great and we manage to get around the Pont de Avignon and the Palais without any problems before a wonderful Basque lunch followed by an adventure working out this city’s version of a share bike system, which allows us to cover some more ground and get across the Rhone on a small ferry to enjoy the views of the city back across the water.

Its then home to rest before sampling some Moroccan food tonight.

Here are some photos of our adventures today. Click the thumbnails for a bigger image or choose to display as a slideshow.
