Christine gets curious about Aix-en Provence: why it's known as the City of a Thousand Fountains, visits Cezanne's Atelier & a mansion in the historic Mazarin District, then learns the curious connection between a king & the calisson. In Arles, she visits the exact spots where van Gogh painted, then Arles' Roman Arena, and learns what a 'vomitorium' was (not as gross as you think.)
