Aigues-Mortes

Our last day in France before heading to Spain, we visited an awesome walled city in France called Aigues-Mortes. We walking around the ramparts of the towers and walls, and saw where the Catholics used to keep Protestant prisoners during the Wars of Religion. Then we took a nice break to see the sunset on the beach a few miles away.
