Climbing mont st victoire

This moutains was cezanne's muse- Quite a beaut!

Two weekends ago I stayed in Aix so we went to Mont St. Victoire on Sunday. We got there after some serious american idiot struggles and then started out on the "path", only to discover about 30 minutes later that this was NOT a correct path. Backtrack- try again. After wasting over an hour being lost we finally shambled our way up the correct path. It started to get really pretty!

After about 2 hours 2 of us decided to go back down because we wanted to catch the 4:00 bus for sure and didn't want to wait until 6PM. So we went down, ended up getting lost 2 more times, and just barely made that bus.

But our friends made it to the top, and then like complete idiots they went down the other side of the mountain and ended up in an entirely different town than the bus. Not ideal at all. They had no idea what to do until some woman offered to drive them back to aix. Saved I guess.

But after spending a weekend in Aix, I was more than ready to voyage this past weekend to MALTA! Stay tuned for a recap of that adventure!
