Sojourn
SOH-juhrn; so-JURN\, intransitive verb:
1. To stay as a temporary resident; to dwell for a time.
Sojourn comes from Old French sojorner, from (assumed) Vulgar Latin subdiurnare, from Latin sub-, "under, a little over" + Late Latin diurnus, "lasting for a day," from Latin dies, "day."
It has been quite some time since I have been out of Nimes.
We have been trying to make it to the beach, with no luck. Due to misleading schedules and stat holidays our two attempts to get out of Nimes have been futile.
Yesterday however we succeeded, and sojourned in Sete, a smallish Mediterranean town.
We ate mussels, a whole bucket of them for 10 euros each, and walked around, took pictures, saw the sea, and then took the train back home.
I felt sick all evening, too many mussels, that were too good at the time = deep regret later.
Sete is a beautiful colourful town, the first time I went there was exactly one one year ago, when I went to Montpellier for a race.
Nice to get out and see something new-ish again.
