The Hinkles in Southern France!After landing at the Toulouse airport we rented a car and van, got directions to the hotel, piled in, took off, got separated and got lost. Talk about jumping in the deep end of French driving! Narrow streets, nowhere to stop, no parking places, pedestrians everywhere, motorcycles blasting past, exasperated tailgaters glaring, tiny street signs...Dawn did an excelent job of navigating while I (Bill) did my best to avoid all of the above. Alley in the van, found the hotel first. We pulled up later in the car and both parked in a basement garage across the street from the hotel. After a nap and a beer we took off to explore Toulouse... We spent one night in Toulouse, then two nights in Carcassonnne, one in Albi, then a week in Vitrac. |
