You never know how much your comfort zone inhibits you until you leave it.

Fontaine de Vaucluse and Little Venice

Today after resting for the morning since it was over 100 degrees, I finally ate some food! Then we watched Grey's Anatomy in French with English subtitles. It was funny to hear the voices that didn't match.

Then after it cooled off and I was feeling much better, we ventured to Fontaine de Vaucluse which is a mountain spring that is so deep they have never reached the bottom. People have died trying to reach the bottom, but the farthest down that they have reached is 600m.


The village surrounding it was very pretty. There was ruins of a castle in the background and the very pretty river with clear, mountain water. I got to put my feet in and it was so refreshingly cold. It might be even cooler than Lake Superior! haha







My feet in the mountain water! So wonderful!





It is so beautiful, I have troubles choosing which photos to select!

Next stop is a town called Little Venice. We only walked around a little bit, but there was lots of music playing as we walked the streets. (I even heard a Michael Bublé song!) The streets were even narrower there, but we were never far from the water. The little restaurants on the streets looked so cute!







This is the unscarable bird that was guarding the church door!
