Sunday 15th

We had a ride in a Mercedes Benz today! OK, it was a bus but it still....  


Wonderful service. It picked us up outside the site, had a display screen to tell us which stop we were at and there were plenty of seats. I could get use to public transport if it was always like this. 

We went to the amphitheatre first. It has been mucked about with a lot since the Romans left it to the nation. At one point it was full of houses and had towers for defence. Now it has a modern seating grandstand inside and is used for large events. 




We did a lot of wandering through the back streets....


and found a nice 10....


and we visited the convent where Vincent Van Gogh spent some time. 



And now for the the younger viewers....
We also treated ourselves to ice creams...



Kate had raspberry and I had lemon meringue, melon and Parma violet!!!!  
We were nearly attacked by wild animals.....



And the trees must have been feeling cold because someone had wrapped them up with wooly jumpers....
