At Pont du Gard we saw the Roman aqueduct and then went to a museum for kids.

First we saw a model and heard a recording of what life was like in the Romans times. Here is a photo of a typical home.

You could pick up sacks of wooden fish and onions and weigh them on an old fashion weighing scales.

I saw a display of a farm. It had a toy cow, the same as what I have in New Zealand. My favorite thing that we did there was a mini aqueduct were you could open gates and fill pools then turn turners to let the water flow through the spinning wheels.
