Day 18 - Aix-en-Provence







The program is going to Provence for the weekend.  After getting about 4 hours of sleep, we head to the Gare de Lyon to catch a train by 7:30 am.  The Minnillos are joining us with the rest of the group about 40 people.  The kids were very excited because we took the TGV.  Aix-en-Provence is a very touristy town with lots of high end shopping, many cafes and charming markets.  We had a tour guide who gave us the history of the town and we walked the same places that Cezanne walked since he was born here.  A very interesting catherdal is in the town.
