Musée du Désert and Aigues-Mortes


Look here to see all the pictures of our day. We started out by going to the Musée du désert. Dedicated to all the Huguenots who were killed, imprisoned or fled from France during the time that the Edict of Nantes was revoked. (I think that you boys, Bob and Dan, went there with U. Steve once, am I right?) It is located in the house of one of the major leaders. Once inside we couldn't take pictures.

After we left there, we went down to Aigues-Mortes and the Tour de Constance. We have been there before with the girls, but this time we had more time and actually went all around the walled city. It was there that we met up with the ladies from Boston again (unbelievable--in a small shop!) and they told us about Les Baux de Provence. So we decided to head that way.
