Avignon
Today we had a full-day excursion to Avignon. Saw the famous bridge, what’s left of it, at least. Extensive visit of the Papal Palace. And because we had a nun in our tour group, we had special access to a room in the cathedral where all the old vestments and ceremonial objects are kept. Avignon has a very good vibe, but it’s less evident in the winter than in the summer. Montpellier, on the other hand, feels like home no matter what the weather is like. Just watch where you put your feet. (BTW, our guide said the city is in the process of addressing the doggie problem.)
