Foix

Our next stop of the day was Foix and this is where we would be spending the night.
Getting to the designated Motorhome area was an utter nightmare as unbeknown to us there is a country show on just 50 meters down the road and there are cars parked absolutely everywhere. I had to use all of my lorry driving skills to get us into this place and it was very stressful. At one point we had 1 inch of space down either side of us and cars just kept coming towards us.
Once we were in we decided to go up to the show to see what all the fuss was.
Just 50 meters up the road in the centre of town is a huge free agricultural show with untold amount of cattle. Several horses and lots of sheep, goats, chickens, ducks and even small finches. We watched what we believe was supposed to be a tractor rally but they just seemed to be driving aimlessly about, followed by horses.
Then there was lots of food stalls and handmade items. It was a nice afternoon out and it was heaving with people, hence the traffic.
At 6pm we got back to Wanda and the Motorhome area was completely full.Read more
