Loupian

Today we went to Loupian, expecting to have lunch out and visit the Roman Villa (mosaics). I had (mostly) worked out how to use the car's GPS, and faked an address for the restaurant (I challenge anyone to find an actual street address for a number of places in France), and looked up the Villa's information - we had been to both with our Sète accueil group, and were excited to introduce them to my parents.

Well, I can say I got us there alive, but following "the voice" led us on a merry path! Chez Patou did not disappoint - we all had entrée salads and shared a plate of scallops - mmmm mmm!

La Nordique

Saint Jacques

Back to the car, we watched a grape havester (probably?) drive by the Place de la République

We got to the Villa, but this is the only part we got to see 😳
Closed on Tuesdays - just our luck!

All was not lost:
- we drove back to Sète, and stopped for a quick peek at the Théâtre de la Mer

History of the Theater

- we got Mom's cell phone set up with a French SIM (10€ + 2€/month)
- and we rented a wheelchair at the Corniche (~16€/week)

We're off and rolling!
