Yesterday, we walked along this lovely street, and visited the Roman temple, then climbed through a huge park to another Roman tower at the top of the hill. After a bit of huffing and puffing, we enjoyed great views of the city and could see Pic St Loup in the distance. On the way down through the park, we heard a lot of dog barking and once we drew closer we saw this......
Two men had stripped down, gone swimming and were offended when the swan wanted them out of its territory. The dog was in the water barking, running along the edge and barking and the men were shouting at the swan and splashing it with water. Perhaps they were not entirely sober.
Speaking of which, did you know that in France, it is the law to carry two breathalyzers in the glove box of your car? If you think you've had too much to drink, then you blow into one. If over the limit, then you are expected to hand the second one to your passenger, who likely has had more to drink than the driver. What a system! These, of course, are disposable breathalyzers, so need to be replaced. As we were leaving the hotel this morning, I took a good look at the machine across from the elevator just around the corner from the lobby. Replacements!
So, a toothbrush will cost 3€, but a condom or breathalyzer will cost 2€.
So we leave France with the sun shining, stomachs full of great food and minds full of wonderful memories. On to England now.
