Beziers

Started off early to get to the seven locks in a row that dropped the canal 21m. We are so slick now and nail it every time. We have all been surprised at the frequency that people on the canal and in ports have commented that we are “quartres femmes” (4 females) we just roll our eyes and give the peace sign.
We’ve had a gorgeous day in Beziers. At times to me I felt I was on a film set. We’ve found the French so friendly. They all say. “But not in Paris”
All a bit sunburnt. Gelati flavours today include. White peach and cassis (black current) me, peanut and chocolate (predictable Trude), passion fruit (barb) which is described as divinely intense. Also see the before lunch patisserie. We just couldn’t help ourselves then we only needed half a sandwich. Amanda would support the pudding first strategy

Surprisingly we’re struggling to eat tea which is a table platter.
I don’t want it to end but tomorrow we only have about 30 mins to get to cassafieres so we thought we’d bike to the Mediterranean- why not really.Read more
