Avignon photos

Photos from Avignon - look at that blue sky! What a gorgeous day!



A courtyard in the Palais des Papes



One of the many huge and cavernously empty halls the palace specialised in. PS God bless the off-season!



Le Pont d'Avignon - it took a few tries to get this without cars in the way and I am (justly?) proud



The pont, from the pont - meta-pont!



The Palais des Papes



Some Popes of questionable gender and/or sexuality. Not that there's anything wrong with that, although I'm pretty sure there would have been at the time...



Looking down the Rhone from the Pont d'Avignon. PS sorry purists, but I just can't do circumflexes without a lot of hassle... Don't even get me started on how I've somehow screwed up my apostrophe key so that it tries to put accents on everything all the time. Not even useful accents, things like ý



Picture of a feral rabbit tile I enjoyed in the Palais des Papes



View from the Pont. I like how it feels like I'm on board a ship. Kinda.



View of the pont from the tower of abiding coldness in the Palais des Papes



View of the square in front of the Palais des Papes from the tower

And now, our after-school special:
Sur le pont d'Avignon.................L'ON Y DANSER!



Some pointless leaping about



Pulp Fiction styles



The robot (HYYYYYYYYBO!) Hybo say hello Ranch clank clank



What is this one called? I've gone totally blank



Supposed to be the twist, not that you can tell. There was also the monkey, but that didn't translate to film too well either.
