One of the best things that happened during my winter break was that I was able to show a few of the girls from Pau, France around my town, Aix-en-Provence. It was interesting because we discovered even more amazing parts of Aix. One morning we found the Hotel de Ville (every French town has one; it was home of the government for centuries, but now its just a pretty building) which houses a fresh flower market every morning. We sat in the sun, sipping cafe, watching the florists go about their work. I also found two different cathedrals in downtown Aix, both of which we were able to go into and listen to mass, something I have never done before. Here we have a picture of all of us standing around Paul Cezanne's statue in downtown Aix, a picture of us in front of one of the cathedrals, inside the cathedral, and then the big tower is the Hotel de Ville. All located in my town!
