Armistice Day

This Thursday was Armistice Day here in France. Matt had the day off and so we decided to tour around the area. The first stop we made was to Saintes Maries de la mer. This is located in the Camargue region, just west of Marseilles.



It was cold outside, but Seneca cannot keep her socks and shoes on!

The main reason for going to this place was to see this...."L'Abrivado", the running in of the bulls.













They has a small live band in the community. Seneca loved it! Here is some footage as well.  







Afterward, our next stop was to Arles. One of the most well preserved Roman arenas in France.

Here is another ruin...Roman amphitheater.





Pretty shot of the Rhone.
