Day 63 Monday, October 30, 2023
It is pouring rain this morning so we have a nice slow start to our day. At noon Bob decides to go for a walk when the rain lessens and I start an online chat with Apple. I had a new battery put into my MacBook in August and its 3 month warranty will have expired by the time we get home.
I was told that if I had any problems I just needed to contact Apple and let them know so they can record it and then it could wait until I was home to be repaired. So that is what I tried to do…for over an hour! Talk about frustration. Finally I was able to arrange to have a supervisor call me because our France SIM car doesn’t have international long distance. The not so bright chat guy suggested I borrow someone’s phone so that I could make the call! He was absolutely useless! Yet he kept saying “I understand what you are saying 100 %”
I know this is a bit of a rant…but I just needed to get it off my chest! Luckily the supervisor was amazing. Within minutes it was all taken care of and I had received multiple apologies.
Bob only took one photo on his walk that went by the coliseum. Nïmes has a lot of water features. 
At 5:00 it began to pour again and it came down in buckets! Here is a very short video of the rain. https://youtu.be/6S1s_y5HO_8 The weather has definitely changed, and it looks like we will be getting cold and rain for the next few weeks.
