Today's coffee run

To Aigues-Mortes, of course.  We only have a couple more days in the south, so we opted to drive down to the walled city of Aigues-Mortes this afternoon.  It isn't far, but it feels like we are stepping into another era.

We parked south of the south wall, and walked through the central gate, to the Place St. Louis, named for King Louis IX of France.  He built his port here, and launched his crusades from here.
