  5. How’s all with you? OK, I’ve got a lot to tell you. In my last email I thinkI was stillin Barcelona,right? Anyway, after that, we started to head north into France. But not too far… first we took the train to a really wonderful town called Perpignan. Typically European, lots of totally gorgeous squares with old buildings and a massive fort. Here’s something incredibly interesting. People speak Catalan here. I always thought that Catalan was spoken only in parts of Spain. But no, the street signshere are inFrench and Catalan. 5

  6. Anyway, our next stop was Montpellier, another utterly gorgeous place further along the coast. Montpellier is a very interesting placebecause it does not haveany Roman or Greek history. Weird, right? Wherever you go in Western Europe, the cities and towns were always founded by the Romans or the Greeks. Still, it’snot ayoungcity. It has oneof the oldest universitiesin the world. Lots of really excellent food here too. I can’t get enough of theseafood! 5 After a few days wandering around and enjoying the sun, we visited the historic city of Arles. OMG! Too beautiful! It was so full of historic monuments that we didn’t see it all. And I didn’t even knowthatthe veryfamous Vincent Van Goghpainted 300 paintingsinArles.Alexwenttowatchafootball matchwhilewe 10 wereheretoo.Loadsoffun.

  7. OK, we are about to go for breakfast so I’ll finish here. But today we are in Marseille. We arrived quite late last night on the train from Arles so we just got up! We’ve got a great view of the harbor from ourhotelwindow…butthat’s all I can tell you. We’re going to eat breakfast (yep, more seriously delicious croissants!), and then we plan to visit Notre Dame de la Garde, a massive cathedral that sits atop a hill and dominates the town. Absolutely spectacular! Alex and I both send our love. Gotta go! Katie 5 10
