On one of the beautiful weather days last week, some friends and I journeyed out to the infamous "
pont du diable" for a little sight-seeing action. Nature didn't disappoint, and I spent a peaceful afternoon skipping stones across the still pond.

 |
| It's a beautiful day on the bridge! |
 |
| We found this cute little farmhouse restaurant. It was right after we got off the bus, and I really had to pee! In order to use the facilities we had to purchase some items. Oranginas all around! |
 |
| I love how the water is reflecting the sky. |
 |
| Me with the two other language assistants from my school! Kerstin in the middle is the German assistant, and Ana on the right is the Spanish assistant. Not only do we all teach in the same high school, but we all live in the same neighborhood in Montpellier! Imagine that :) |

| Finding a spot to settle on the beach. |
You will find the legend of
le pont du diable in the picture below.
 |
| The legend was written in four languages! French, English, German, and Spanish. Perfect for our international crew. |
After enjoying our lunch on the beach, we all ventured up to St. Guilhem-le-Désert. It was a very cute village, and wonderfully peaceful. We didn't see a soul out, which only added to the majestic atmosphere.

| Fire hydrant! |
 |
| Outside the bus station. We had to take the tram and two buses to arrive at our final destination. |
On the bus-ride home, I met a girl studying chemistry in Montpellier. She is from the Czech Republic, and it was so interesting to talk to her.
We had such a lovely day, and it was nice to experience a smaller village and imagine how different life would be if I lived there.
