That was awesome. You could hear the sound of the cars while you were still on the train not even at the station. So loud. So cool. Although the casino had temporary stadiums and gates in front of it limiting access and views.
I'd also second many of the examples up here - Avignon is super cool, especially at night as everyone goes away. Pont du Gard is really cool. I wish it had been on a warmer day so I could have floated underneath the bridge. Nice is fun because of the Italian influence We're thinking of doing a similar trip in the near future cause I want to see las calanques, carcassone, and some of the other things you've seen mentioned here. You planning on going by car or by train? We've always down train but I think Provence and southern france may lend itself to car.
