Fields of sunflowers abound, oil for food and
alternative source of fuel makes the countryside so attractive
In the rolling countryside at the foothills of the Pyrenees are
fields of sunflowers, and wine
vineyards.
All given various
denominations. Blanquette de Limoux is a traditionally fermented
sparkling wine as good as champagne
The Canal du Midi winds its way along the foothills
of the Pyrenees too
The Canal was not made
deep enough for commercial navigational purposes, but serves as a great way
to spend a Holiday, renting these canal motor boats.
Lagrasse
A BMW with Sidecar is
quite a rarity! Valerie’s not tempted to travel that way however,
it looks rather low down and vulnerable!

No- David didn’t ride the bicycle up the
mountain either!
