Day 12

Spent the day bumbering around Aix-en-Provence looking in shops, markets, bookshops and cafes. From Cours Mirabeau (beautiful tree-lined street with shops) to Hotel de Ville to Cathedral Saint-Sauveur in the medieval part of Aix and the many plazas and fountains in between.

Aix is often referred to as the city of a thousand fountains. Ended up at a restaurant at Aix's most famous fountain, La Fonatine de La Rotonde, for dinner.
