It will maybe be smaller than the one of the week end, but probably
nicer and more authentical ! And have a lot of fun in Arles : this
beautiful city is not only the city of Van Gogh but also the one of the
oldest woman in all history of France (and at the time, of the mankind).
She had sold her house in return for a life annuity and died at 124
years old... The buyer died much before her ! Not so good a business...
Her secret, according to her : eating chocolate every day... So try the
chocolates in Arles too ! :-D
