We seem to be on an art trail! We chose Arles, as it looked like a good stopping point as we made our way across towards Italy. Of course it turns out to be where Van Gogh had quite a productive period, and also spent some time in the sanitorium. We visited the sanitorium garden that he painted and it is still almost the same as in his painting.
There were also some pretty impressive roman and medieval ruins there too. I guess with the history of the countries we are travelling through, there is bound to be a lot of this to see. (By the way, Ben Hur rode his chariots around here - Arles)
