France Holiday - Day 3 - Aix en Provence

With the rain pouring down on Paris we decided on an Uber from the hotel to Gare de Lyon. It took around 30 minutes and worked well as an alternative to the hour long walking alternative. We were in Standard Class this time on the TGV to Aix as the price difference was large and the difference in comfort we had seen last time was quite small. Happy with this choice for the reasonably speedy journey down South.

We picked up our hire car without incident at the TGV station and then drove to our Novotel hotel (Pont-de-l'Arc Fenouillères) on the outskirts of Aix. 

We did a pleasant 30 minute stroll into town and had a good wander around the town centre. Stopping for drinks in a central square and then dinner at Chez Laurette (Colin had lamb tagine). Took an Uber back to the hotel afterwards.
