Ibis Carcassonne Berriac

Hey all, <br>We were in Carcassonne the other day...<br><br>We got off the night train from Paris at 7 am. it was really dark and foggy, so we stayed in the Train station a little while before adventurin out to find our hotel... the hotel was said to be far from the train station, so we decided to take a walk and try to figure out the buses... we walked quite a ways in the fog, We were on a mission to find bus 12, that was the bus that would take us to the hotel... we walked ...

... it wasn't open. So we just kept on walking. Everything was still closed seeing as how it was only 7:30 or so....so we finally decided we'd try to figure out how to take a bus to our hotel. We figured out that we needed the number 12 bus...but couldn't find a stop that the 12 stopped at. So we just kept walking. We had bought a map of Carcassonne at the shop in the train station so we knew roughly where we had to go. After walking for about half ...

... 12.5%, and then to a dreamy 10% - might as well be flat in comparison! Then finally the triumph of reaching the top. <br><br>The last few mornings the mountains have been dusted with a light layer of snow and I was greatly looking forward to a last look back from this amazing vantage point. But it was not to be had. Grey cloud sacked in. Staring hard there were the occasional dark shadows of rocky edges that could be seen ...

Conrad was up at 8:30 am to start the pancakes. I had woken at 6:30 am for my usual bathroom trip, and I noticed how absolutely quiet it was here. It was very nice. I rolled out of bed at 9 am. We all had a pirate pancake breakfast. It was Claude, his wife, one of his daughters, and us. The other daughter had gone to a slumber party the night before. Conrad made a pancake ...

... toilets I have ever seen. There were two 'cubicles&#8217; and they were those ones that clean themselves after every use, I use the term &#8216;clean&#8217; VERY loosely! The cubicle on the right was broken and the cleaning shower was on continuously. The cubicle on the left stunk, had scum all over the seat, bowl and back of the toilet, and there was no toilet paper. The floor was wet and sticky thanks to the cleaning process. I was second to go in our group, armed with tissues ...

... I hope the photos turned out. Outside the castle are some vineyards; I am in France. <br><br>Two of my roommates are med school students from the Czech Republic. It is extremely expensive for them to travel in France which they are doing for a month. They have hitch hiked there way everywhere. I suggested that rather than walking to the perimeter of a city (which is where they start their hitchhiking) that this would be good use of E1 on a public bus to save time. They agreed.

... croissants for breaky this am so we got stuck into those. We cruised slowly enjoying the weather and the views of the snowy Pyrenees in the distance. At Le Somail we finally filled up with water. Winky's parents left us to carry on with their holiday and we lazed around in the warm sun watching the ducks, geese and otters. One crazy old dude even went for a swim in the canal, which wasn't advisable if you had seen the colour of it! There was an old bookshop next to the town ...

... deja imi simteam stomacul incalzit. ...aveam noi sa constatam in seara aia inainte de culcare... ca daca stiam mai devreme cumparam mult mai multe sticle, cat de platit si vama! Si nici macar nu era din cel de clasa. Vin de pays ii zice acolo, si era facut din struguri de muscat. Am invatat in Franta, asa ca novicele, incercand sa descopar cum de nu sunt un neam de alcoolisti la cata productie au si cat consuma, si ca vinul "de pays", vin ...
