Carnivale a Les Matelles
... same group kept popping out of another alley. At one point they were stopped around a corner. It sounded like one of them t youths they might be lost, but they looked around th e corner and one little girl said, "no, C'est Le monsieur aced Le velo".

Good days ride
I checked the hI website this morn ing; Montpellier hostel does not get great reviews. It was a tad noisy. Oh well. Next time I will check the reviews and perhaps book ahead, then maybe I won't end up in a 6 man room. I did, however, get good directions for a ride.
