Wind Storm in Avignon, France

The wind was howling, was fierce, strong and relentless for two days while we were in Mistral 7, a shopping mall outside of Avignon, France city center on May 31 and June 1, 2011.

We decided to wait it out and let the strong winds pass but we did not expect it to last for two days.  The consolation in our being stranded is that we have free wifi from the mall, Auchan Supermarche for anything we want to cook and eat, McDonalds, Kentucky Fried Chicken and Lidl, my favorite market.

On the third day, June 2, the wind storm is somewhere else, but the rain came.  We visited Palais des Papes and the city center of Avignon while still raining.  We got wet but it was ok, small price to pay for being a tourist in France.
