Our morning started off right
But then got awfully breezy! We found an alcove for our picnic lunch :-)
Then set off to see the aqueduct, along with all the other tourists
Mom and I got a good look at the river
While Rick and Dad went up the bank for a different view
We crossed the bridge, but then the wind did us in! We walked through the museum (very interesting descriptions of how the aqueduct was built), then headed home.

You can read about the 40 centuries of history here: http://www.pontdugard.fr/en/40-centuries-history
Practical info (see here for more): You can park on either side of the river (rive droite used to be free, but I don't think this is the case anymore). Rive gauche has amenities, including wheelchairs for loan, and the path to and across the bridge is fairly flat (the other side is steeper).
