So they decided to put yellow sticky tape all over the castle, which is a little strange as you can see. Apparently this is part of an art installationBut when viewed from the right spot it produces .a collection of concentric and eccentric circlesLittle strange and funky.

A day of relaxation in the unrelenting sun, what else to do but eat, drink and chill after a Womble around the city.Lunch courtesy of musselsFollowed by a six course tasting menu accompanied by our Sommelier’s choice of wines. Now this is the mini vat that was brought out purely for the folksAfter which Casper decided to join us for some funAnd of course the very elegant Mrs Fogg (accompanied by Shrek)A wonderful evening enjoying some unusual food on a beautiful sunset eveningAnd today we are so full we couldn’t even eat a wafer thin mint

Drinks on the terraceCassoulet in the citadelAnd chillin in the perfectly manicured gardens

An awesome start, nice flight (despite the cattle air with one of the no frills unless you pay airlines and the scrum for your luggage with the lazy ass baggage handlers. The hotel is awesome and the wine tasting with our dedicated Sommelier, followed by food is just so nice

So here we are set to jet off to Carcassonne in that there France. This is the Christmas treat for the Folks and the final destination has been a surprise.Food, drink and relaxation is the order of the day.
