This morning, we repeated the route of our bike ride from Monday, hoping to find more bee eaters (les Guepiers). And we did see quite a few today. They are about the size of a robin and were always across the canal from us. Without a powerful camera lens, our photographic results were limited. But a few photos still reflect the vivid colors of these cool birds.

Then after our ride, we entered the walled city of Aigues Mortes for a tasty lunch on the Place Saint Louis. Despite being breezy, we had a really nice day.
