Came across a motorcycle gang today. Here's one of the gang members getting ready to ride out of town.

We rode the TGV train (the fast one) back to Barcelona today. Was less than 4 hours from Avignon, France. Now we are settled in to a small town just south of Barcelona for a couple nights. Here is the view from our room tonight.

Tomorrow it's back to Spain.

Today's bicycle ride was 30.6 miles. The focus of this ride was Pont du Garde. Beautiful old Roman aquaduct. Great ride!

Today we stayed on the boat. A storm came up and the wind is blowing. We stayed on board, watched the storm blow by and sipped hot chocolate all day.

We had a great day today. Rode 36.6 miles on the bicycles. Highlight of the day was a visit to the old village of LeBaux in Provence. Got lots of exercise since like most old towns and fortresses, they are built on the top of a mountain. We did lots of climbing but the small and twisty roads were a bicyclists dream. Incredible scenery all the way. We are back on the boat for the night. Will do a short bike ride in the morning and then we will cruise the boat across the river (Rhone). To another landing point for a ride to Pont du Gard on Thursday.

This morning we pushed off from our dock and are heading up the canal. We will be getting of the boat after breakfast and bicycling to Arles to meet up one again with the boat. The photo shows us as we are turning the boat around.

We headed out at 7:30 this morning. We are traveling up a canal. The boat will pull over at Saint Gilles and drop us off with the bicycles where we will bicycle through the countryside into Arles. We will meet the boat at Arles again and spend the night.

Spent the day on bicycles exploring the Camargue region of Southern France known for their white wild horses, Bulls, and flamingos. Had a great day.
