We have spent the past three days discovering St Chamas and some other things. We went to a Roman bridge that was built way before I was born and the washing area for people who had contagious diseases so that they could be cleansed. We also climbed to the top of the hill separating the town and walked across the aquaduct from one side to the other. It was quite trilling. Dan strolled across and I held on to the railing every inch of the way.
We discovered, "It's not easy to get there from St Chamas" is a phrase we will hear over and over and over. Even the people at the tourism office said that. We are trying to understand bus and train schedules, but it is not easy for us two Anglais speaking old guys.
And until Yana gets home, we can't have internet in the house because it is his/her connection we work off of.
On the plus side, we made a friend or two already.... people who have been very helpful.
Tomorrow is market day, which is supposed to be pretty darn cool.
It will probably be next Tuesday before you hear from us again.
From the top.... Dan crossing the aquaduct, the Roman ruins...note the cart ruts in the stone; the washing house, Dan on the other side, St Chamas from the harbor...note the homes in the cliffs, me having a coffee.
Hope all of you are well!
