We find the sun on the road to Carcassonne, through Bouzigues, surely known for its oysters and Meze with its museum of dinosaurs, but we have only to observe that which can be seen from the road. We pass near the Hérault, river with brown hues and Béziers, Coursan that crosses the Aude, Lézignan and wines, Trebes and a reception area with water, electricity for only one euro per day, is something other than Aigues Mortes ! As it is not yet night we continue to Carcassonne where we spend the night at the edge of the Aude, near the walls of the ancient city.
Birthday Ronald is celebrated with a great big breakfast and a walk in the city. Too bad the weather catches up, rain began to fall around noon. We run back to the sun and Toulouse, where after crossing the pink city, we find a place in the basin Mouthpieces three channels which cross the Garonne : the name of the same, the Canal du Midi and the Brienne we follow walk to town. After a ride on the Capitol Square and the Dungeon, old archives of the city and now the Tourist Office, we head to St. Peter's Square with a stop at Gambetta Bar to locate the area on the Internet. Several bars on site : Holy Fucking with varied music and pop art decor much to our liking, The color panties a little too trendy for us, two others I've forgotten the name and Chez Tonton : Pastis O Master as announced teaches. Good atmosphere, good prices, especially Monday when a pastis (or beer) purchased an equal offered. This is where we end the day Ronald birthday before returning to our Penates well after midnight.
The rest of the week will be less festive, Tuesday : turn temporary boxes (fortunately all in the same neighborhood, near Alley François Verdier) and Wednesday a test for Ronald on the site of a hospital. Conclusive test, so we settle in Toulouse for a month. The city is clean and pleasant with its canals and river, sympathetic strong Toulouse !
Sunday we met our neighbors around a drink in one of the RV : many Britons, students or workers, there for five months or weeks and all very friendly !
Remember that there are a lot of family in Toulouse. For simple meetings, or a helping hand mutual .. why not !? (Py ask George for connection).
Take Care
You are now in Toulouse for a month. It is a very beautiful city. Claire will celebrate his birthday on Sunday.
Big kisses and see you soon Nanou
