avenches


Today I tagged along on a trip to visit the ruins of Avenches, the ancient capital of Roman Helvetia (1st century B.C. to 5th century A.D.) Jude unearthed a not-so-ancient artifact from the amphitheater- a hubcap to carry around. 


In town:


Before our trip, I had a beautiful walk through the vineyards this morning on my way to Thoiry.
