• A 'Joyeuse' drive to Arles [Day #4]

There's something special about being awoken by roosters crowing .. right outside one's tent. Such is the life in the naturalists camp. Here is our tent in all her glory on our final morning at the campground. We enjoyed our "double filtered" coffee having spent the previous evening (unnecessarily?) filtering the "safe-to-drink" mountain river water through coffee filters. (We also zapped it with UV light to be on the safe side). Aren't we a couple o' helpless city / hipster folks?
The reason we had to hang up our garbage

"You can take the man out of Vitalien but you can't take the Vitalien out of the man" - said no one ever. As some of you might have gathered, Denna can't go long without visiting an organic shop. So we made a stop in the town of Joyeuse for groceries and fell in love with the shop .. and the town (potentially because of the shop).
Successfully blending in with the locals. 
Strolling in the old town of Joyeuse.
Arriving at our AirBnB in Arles, which will be home base for the next four nights. The driveway is quite steep and it was a major effort to not slide backwards because of the weight of the car. We left a pretty hefty skid mark in the process and then unpacked. Not much more to say other than .. "skid mark".
