Beaucaire

Unfortunately our time in Beaucaire is coming to an end and today was our last full day. On the bright side however it was another relatively late start this morning as it always is here but then it was off to Glanum. I managed to nab a seat in the party van with Mr Boyce and having josh as well made the quick trip priceless. Our tour around the ruined Roman town started at a well preserved arch and cenotaph and progressed to a crystal clear well and the remains of a temple. We were then driven to a medieval town where we looked around the shops and stopped for lunch, however it was only a quick stop and we were soon arriving at Tarascon castle, only preserved because it was used as prison. The highlight of the day came when we went to our next destination , a vineyard, where we not only learned how wine was made back in the day but also got to try a Roman wine. To my taste buds it was not particularly appealing, but I am no wine expert. Luckily the alcohol didn't make the trip back to the hotel too rowdy and we made it in one piece and quickly proceeded to jump in the pool before the sun disappeared behind some clouds. Leaving for Paris tomorrow where we are once again pushed to see everything in the limited time we have, gutted to see Beaucaire go but also excited for Paris and London.
