| Pont du Gard This beautifully preserved Roman aqueduct was built in about 19 B.C. as the critical link of a 30-mile canal that supplied nine million gallons of water per day (about 100 gallons per second) to Nimes - one of ancient Europe's largest cities. |

Day 9 - Wednesday, May 2nd - Isle-sur-la-Sorgue and surrounds
Today brings us another beautiful sunny day as we venture this time to the south of Isle-sur-la-Sorgue to the villages of Les Baux, St. Remy, Glanum, and Eygalieres. But first, we took a side trip to the Pont du Gard (the subject of our photo of the day) which we missed Monday due to the rain.
