23 Oct Le Phenicien and field trip to the Pont Du Gard

While moored at Villeneuve lez Avignon we visited the farmers market and the town in the morning before returning to Le Phenicien for lunch. We then had an amazing visit to the ancient Roman aqueduct, the Pont Du Gard. A very useful museum has been added and we had a most informative American guide who led us through the museum and the uppermost channel of the aqueduct itself.
