This morning, we visited ruins of the nearby two-channel aqueduct that provided water to Arles in Roman times and powered a mill to grind flour. On the north side of the road, a long stretch of the aqueduct is visible. As you walk to the south, some parts of the aqueduct have been restored and other parts are pretty broken down, but what remains is still quite impressive.

Walking through this channel above the mill, we were greeted by the sound of sheep and goats wearing cowbells in the field below. It was quite lovely.
In honor of Memorial Day in the US, red poppies from the aqueduct.
