Each town around here has its own arena for bull races and these vary according to the size of the town and the tourist traffic. Le Grau du Roi has an arena that is quite a bit larger than Salin de Giraud (where we recently attended the bull races), but quite a bit smaller than the one in Les Saintes Maries de la Mer, or the massive arenas in Arles and Nimes. Many of the arenas have sculpted bulls nearby. The Le Grau de Roi arena is located quite close to the canal that we bike along, I took this photo from the canal path.

The French definitely have a sense of humor. I found this sign on les toilets in a cafe in Aigues Mortes and it cracked me up.
I hope that you are enjoying your day.
