after the longest train journey i think either of us are ever willing to undertake again and the little child who was like the energiser bunny we are finally in toulouse.next stop is castres.last night was interesting cycling at nigh for the first time on our trip and im sure it wont be the last one either and we actually had drink for the first time as well!!!!!!a few beers and some local brandy that the nice barman gave us free got us well on our way.nice way for him to say goodbye to us i think.and for being stupid enought to do what we are doing...happly discovered that the girls in the room next to us not only speak english but are also australian so we might be going out again tonight but that another story eh?
going back a few days we had another late night rendevous with some rather interesting private school cambridge students both studying french on holiday to get it better.....yeah right there school payed for them cheecky mares.but then we took them both to the top of the eiffel tower(cheesy or what) and then for a stroll down the champs elysses(even better).and then we discovered that the trains had stopped running so we being gentlemen as we are offered to walk them back to their hostel.not realising how far it was so we ourselves had to trapse across paris at god only knows what hour to get back to our own hotel which we wernt even sure would be open at this time.but dont worry it was next to a police station so we felt both secure and intimidated at the same time.were ok so dont worry about it off for our next adventure(finding food and places to stay on a bank holiday weekend in france!!!!)
