Today was a driving day to Provence. We stopped in three places to venture and look around/ eat lunch and dinner. Our hotel is in the middle of nowhere and their is nothing to do around their so we made many little stops so that we were occupied. Our first stop was to see the Popes Castle. In Italy when Roman Catholic was not the top religion and the ruler didnt really want them there, the Pope moved into this castle for protection. This castle was really nice and big.

After that then we went to this very old bridge that was created in the 14 BC It was really nice and people were able to swim and cliff jump. A lot of people in my group were jumping off the cliff which was fun to watch but I definitely was not going to do that. No bueno with the heights.

Next, we went to an ampthetheater that was very similar looking to the Colusseum but much smaller. It gave us a wonderful view of the whole city and you were able to climb all the way to the top of the seating which was fun and scary all at the same time. My friend Cristina decided she wanted to have a good picture so she got on top of the wall and stood up. Oh my God mini heart attack. I AM SO SCARED HEIGHTS!

Off to Barcelona Tomorrow! Adios.
