Montpellier

We're in Montpellier today as we arrived yesterday, it seems like a pretty young lively city so far as it has a large university crowd. Yesterday was a very nice sunny day, and it felt good, not sure about today yet, seems a little cooler judging by what I can see out the window. We didn't have much time to explore the place yet as we arrived at 5:00pm although we did sit for a really good supper at a place that specializes in kebabs. We could choose 3 different types, Cristelle choose steak (of course), lamb and squid. I had the Salmon(of course), spicy sausage and chicken. Today will be pretty low key as it's sunday and everything in France so far seems to closed on Sunday. Cristelle woke up with a headache this morning, no doubt from the change in weather although it did fade away pretty quickly.

Later that day:
We just had a chance to walk around the downtown today, the small alleyways and streets are just what one expects to see in rural coastal france... Long and narrow with amazing architecture and antique finishing down to the last detail. We were sad to see the market was closed, as we were hoping to get something to eat from inside; fruit and pastry alas we had to stop by a local bakery, a good substitute for sure. We also walked to a large arch followed by a football field sized park leading towards another decorative monument. Directly behind it was an aqueduct and we were at the top level looking out as it faded in the distance. very cool stuff.

We're off to Barcelona tomorrow and what a hell of a time we've had finding a place to stay... just booked one this morning.

Turns out, it's a pretty warm day again!
