Now Montpellier adds yet another dimension. Even though we are only a little further south and a couple of hundred kilometers east, this is quite a different world. We progressively left farming land and went through hilly regions with only a few towns on the way. The countryside has a distinctly Mediterranean look with lots of dry areas and smaller tougher bushes. Not too much grass on the ground in these parts. Closer to Montpellier, the traffic was a lot heavier (even given the end of holiday traffic). We drove through Montpellier (could have a navigation error or two - but at least it was weekend traffic only) and quickly sensed the big city feel compared to laid back Albi.
