Aigues-Mortes

We visited a fortified town, inside there are shops and houses. It was a shame that it was too cold and windy to really enjoy it.





visit to the beaches, love the Mediterranean Sea.

Carnon Plage, very cool playground equipment.

Two boys at Le Grau-du-Roi.
Each sea side town here is dead in the winter and full of tourists in the summer, it's a bit different to Bondi and Cronulla.

Aquarium in Montpellier










Zoo in Montpellier

We visited the Zoo in Montpellier, which was free. It is a huge zoo where the animals hide in their fenced off areas... But it was a lot of fun. Plus a lovely warm day.











Montpellier

We just spent 5 nights staying with Yves' brother in Montpellier. It was great, the light, the warm air... a yummy winter break. It was 16°c one day...lovely.





Here Alex is dancing to the band that was doing an impromptu set.




He just loves to dance...
