August 21st Nimes to La pont de gard

Lovely relaxed cycle to La pont de gard along the little roads, no big lorries  to contend with. Camped at a camp site which on the web looked a bit naf but is really quiet and shaded, with a pool and all for 16 euro, 8 euros cheaper as we are on velos :) went to look at the Pont Neuf and were flabbergasted to find out it costs 15 euro to view it!!!!! About turn!! Back to camps site where the couple next to us with the cutest little camping pod ever, told us ways to get in via walking track or to go later when the turn lights on and no-one there to charge. relaxed by pool and then headed to Pont at 8pm where Dave did a quick painting though he could barely see the colours he was putting on, so could have an abstract feel to it. Beautiful structure, the clever Romans, though not sure what they ever did for us??!!

Looking forward to stay in Vauclouse, there looks so much to do and looking forward to normal living and cooking. keep discussing the meals we shall have, it is a bit like I'm a celebrity, getting obsessed with food!
