Kyriad Toulouse Centre Hotel

... sunshine, and 'who cares attitute' into the place (not literally mind- im not mother teresa), and i think towards the end, when id overcome a bit of the language barrier, i saw a little light at the end of a very dark tunnel. <br>I'm kidding of course, i am not claiming by any stretch, to be a messiah sent from above, and nor do i dislike france or the french(ive got good french friends) but sometimes after a little too much cheese and wine, it can start to go moldy very quicky. <br><br><br>

... He offered to take me to the mountains hiking the next day. So I arranged to meet him.<br><br>That night I joined Tiphaine and her roommate at a "girls party" for all the girls in their school since there arent so many. It was very interesting to see how similar these girls were to me and my friends. They drank lots of wine, ate good food and chatted about boys. They also played a drinking game that is the french version of Never Have I Ever. So even in other countries ...

Visiter quelques musées gratuit, (à cause du festival ''printemps à Toulouse'') c'est toujours rentable !<br><br>Nous avons fait le musée des augustins. Il y a plein de statues et de vieilles pieces murales des églises de Toulouse.<br><br>Ensuite la Basilique St-Sernin, très jolie puisque son cloché est illuminé le soir.<br><br>Et finalement les Abattoirs, avec un tat d'art dont du ne comprend jamais vraiment la signification (l'art modern...).<br>

... was town after town with no countryside in between. No towns seemed to offer any campsites or accommodations (other than hotels). After about 90km I was done. We&#8217;d done so much yesterday I was starting to feel it. So tonight, our bed is in a ditch in the middle of a cloverleaf joining several roads together. Perhaps I have more in common with the people in Tolouse than I thought.

... traveling. After a quick stop at a McDonalds to check internet it was starting to get late. <br><br>I was working on trusting and not worrying, but as the miles continue it becomes more and more difficult. Getting to be 6pm. Brian got anxious since we had already cycled 100km and didn&#8217;t know where we were going to stop. No signs have shown themselves along the canal, and we were starting to wonder if this would be ...

... own shopping bags and bag your own groceries. The kids have no school on Wednesdays, so tomorrow we are traveling north to Rocomador, said to be a beautiful old city. Expecting lots of photo ops, and will get a much better look at the countryside. Will be back in Toulouse tomorrow evening, and then depart on 3-day excursion on Friday; much too detailed to mention here. Still pinching myself to think I´m here. Hoping all is well with each of you and yours. Don´t give up on the pics.

... vivement faire la plonge ou ramasser les cacas de chiens. Cependant je ne perd pas mon temps a rien faire, je nous ai trouvé un splendide appart miteux qu'on va pouvoir louer pour un mois. Ca nous reviens à 40% du prix de l'auberge, chose pour laquelle je suis pret a dormir par terre. Petites finances rapides pour ceux qui aiment les maths: 1 mois d'auberge de jeunesse pour 2...................................... .... 900euros 1 ...

... centre of town. Toulouse is known as the PINK CITY as the buildings and rooftops are pink and salmon colour, it is a very pretty city and easy to get around. We cross the Garonne at Rue Valade and then walk along the Riverfront in the gardens, crossing back past the old hospital and Neuf Pont it is brisk and beautiful but after 4 hours of walking I am quite tired. We get back and Nathalie makes us some lunch, its 2pm so I am quite hungry. It is a yummy spread ...

... due to the fairly intense pain of having my leg stuck behind a seat. Take away another night of sleep. It was 6 am and I walked a few kms with my oversized dirty backpack to the nearest park bench to wait for sunlight. The tourist office opened at 9am - If the Spanish were protective of their language, then the French assume if you don't speak French then you must be from England, and therefore they don't have a whole lot of time for you. I put on my smiley voice for a phone call ...
