Yesterday we saw Louie's Summer Palace (Versailles) with 50,000 - 75,000 other nasty tourists (Well, all of them weren't nasty, but many were) making the visit almost unbearable. Today we saw the Palace of the Popes in Avignon with about 250 people. . . . What a joy that was!! Now seriously, one can't compare Versailles with the Popes old place (There is NO comparison), but seeing it with 250 other eager tourists made it fun, entertaining and educational. That was about all we saw of Avignon, being more interested in going to the Laundramat, (Paula just can't stand dirty clothes!!)  and generally being burned out of BIG sights!! Tomorrow we hit the small villages in Lanquedoc-Roisillion and get the big city dirt off our shoes. Uzes is our first stop for the morning market where we will stock up on picnic supplies and head for the Gorge du Tarn. Our hotel tonight is small, cheap and friendly. Paula and Steve are already close buds and no one has had to lecture Duane on proper French etiquette yet. Nice Place!! Weather is cooperating and we look forward to sunny skies and the full moon!!
