We had a beautiful lunch at our favorite town - Seguret. It's close to other tourist stops, so visitors quickly come and go making for a tranquil spot in a very small town. They had a great restaraunt with a tasty lunch that looked like art work. The town was so relaxing we drove the hour and a half back to spend another day.
We took a day to see the carmague, the delta of the Rhone and a wildlife sanctuary filled with flamingos and salt flats. Flocks of pink floated by like the National Geographic Channel.
The limestone cave we visited was cold, with 100% humidity, and dramatic stalagmites falling from the ceiling. The cave stepped down into three large rooms, 2 where the ceilings had collapsed onto the floor as the caves slowly erode their way upwards. Ava was busy using her ca
mera and flash to try and catch the drama. Afterwards a meandering drive along the Ardech with its limestone walls and Pont d'Arc where the river slides beneath an arch way.
Our last day in France involved renting kayaks and paddling down river and underneath the Roman aqueduct Pont du Gard. A hot day with cool waters made the kayak adventure so pleasurable. Nicole and Hannah had a little trouble steering their craft along the river as they though it best to coast down via bank to bank - paddling straight wasn't really an option.
