Toulouse Area



On Saturday we drove into Toulouse where we bought a few little things and walked the old town with other tourists and the locals. As a university city and the centre of the French aerospace industry, the town is fairly lively and enjoyable. We came home via the canal de midi where there were plenty of walkers and cyclists out enjoying the afternoon. Not much action on the canal itself though; perhaps because it was towards the end of the day. The boats that we did see were parked near villages with the occupants either wandering around town or taking it easy on deck with a book and drink in hand.
