Scenery, Sun, and Sweat in the South of France

We've been busy little bees traveling about, and I can't believe it's been over a week since our last post. We've done a lot since then.....made our way from Belgium to Southern France and then on to Italy! We've been in Italy over a week now and our having a great time.

Wanted to share some of our pictures from Southern France, though, before venturing into the stories and pics of Italy. One main change from Scandinavia and Belgium and the south of France in July . . . . the HEAT. Oh yeah, it got hot and at times I (Krista) almost had some meltdowns (no pun intended). But anyway, moving on, in Southern France we stayed in a smaller town called Arles, which is in the Provence region. The Tour de France got pretty close to where we were, but we were unable to see it. We did, however, spend an afternoon with some locals who adopted us for the day.....invited us over to their house for a great meal and took us sightseeing. It was awesome! We were in Arles for three days and then we headed east and a little south to Nice! We stayed a couple nights in Nice and had a great time exploring the French Riveria. We even met up with some of Justin's family for a day who were in the area.
