Exploring Dax

So, I threw myself a little afternoon pity party yesterday because I hate not being in control, so I stayed in for the afternoon and called on a couple apartments, and then made myself get up and get out of the hotel. So I went exploring.

AND YOU GUUUUUUYS.

I'll just.... casually leave these here.

All my crap on the bed, and my lovely balcony

View from my balcony of every one else's balconies. :D

The lovely construction view from my balcony (They're working on the outside of the train station)

Some little park near le vieux pont

La Fontaine Chaude -- The Warm Fountain (hot spring, I think)

Hard to see, but there's little streams of water that pour down for dog watering, hand washing, etc

The library

It's not a French city without the Palais de Justice

Some Roman ruins (I think)

More ruins at the end of the street

Foie Gras

How to eat foie gras (with bread YUM)

Lamb

Chocolate cake

Espresso, my love

Twinkling lights

Le vieux pont

I'll take some better pictures when I actually take my camera out with me (and when it isn't raining like in the last few photos).

I met a really nice lady who owns the bar that I ate at. She's got an American friend coming to town next week and she invited me to stop by to chat since her friend doesn't speak any French (and not many people here speak English).

Tomorrow I'm moving into the Foyer. It will be nice to just get unpacked (living out of a suitcase is ROUGH). So after that I'll feel a little bit freer to roam around and explore some more. There's a manga convention this weekend and then I might head up to Bordeaux next week or down to Spain. We'll see where the wind takes me.
