Pont du Gard
April 19 2010, 1:37 PM
After descending to the small town of St Hyppolyte du Fort for the night, rode on the lovely back roads (those which weren't closed) eastward (via Lèdignan) through the countryside today, to the Pont du Gard, part of a Roman aqueduct built in 50 AD (!) to bring water all the way from Uzès to Nîmes (!!). Beautiful setting it is in too. Camping nearby on banks of Gard. Man at campsite reception: "Votre nom?" Me: "Moore." Man: "Comme Roger?"
