Aix-en-Provence

Went to aix (pronounced 'aches') yesterday. It is a really cool French city known most specifically for being the hometown of Cezanne. We spent the day there yesterday and i really thought it was great. The city has a distinctly youthful feeling to it because of several schools and universities in its vicinity. There was also a great market where they were selling everything under the sun, including their specialty pesto, of which I bought two jars of after sampling. We spent most of the day wandering around, checking the city out. We stopped into a luseum and found that we had just missed the Cezanne exhibit by a few days. Quel dommage... Even so, we bought a café in the café that Cezanne used to frequent and it was all pretty cool. We go to Paris next week and I'm getting excited.
