Today we are in Aix-en-Provence.\u00a0 This is considered the cultural heart of Provence.\u00a0 This is pretty much a town for walking around and window-shopping \u2013 easy to see in a day. We had a great French lunch of tartines with the local ros\u00e9. After lunch we were walking around the city and fortunately stumbled upon a caf\u00e9 with wireless (a lot less common than we expected).\u00a0 We spotted a great, authentic looking pizza stand with a line around the corner, so we\u2019re planning to grab one for dinner tonight back at our place in Marseille.<\/p>\n
Our original plan was to stay in Marseille for seven nights and do side trips from our apartment. Once we got situated here, we realized that a few of the towns we really wanted to visit were over an hour away from our place. After thinking it over, we decided to bite the bullet and spend a couple nights in Arles. The decision was a little easier considering our accommodations in Marseille weren\u2019t what we had hoped for. Our next posts will be coming from Arles (wahoo!).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
