Day 1. Nothing Toulouse... Bonjour! Bienvenue! We have arrived in Carcassonne. The journey was a little bit of a schlep...We flew into Toulouse, and then got the bus from the airport to the train station, and then got the train from Toulouse to Carcassone, and then walked from the train station to the hotel...but it was ok! The train journey was slightly anxious though as we hadn't validated our tickets. In France you are supposed to punch your tickets in a litt...

Day 7 - "Today I don't feel like doing anything..." Today was another very lazy day. I had another splash in the sea, and then did some more heavy duty relaxing by the pool. We had a delightful lunch from the bakery round the corner, who sadly recognise us now as we have been there every day. Fat fat fatties.

Day 5 - "Just a Little Bit of History Repeating..." I LOVED today! I took myself off to Ornos Beach early doors.

Then I rejoined Andrew at the hotel to enjoy the sun a bit more, and we had a very lazy morning. We the went into town for some lunch and on the way we bought some ...

Day 4 - "You've...Got to Pick A Pocket Or Two..." Our day started very peacefully with some sunbathing around the pool. For some reason the smaller pool up our end of the hotel is always completely deserted, so it's still like our own private pool! We then then had an explore around Ornos (start ominous doom-laden music in your heads, please) which took us around the beach bars and then over to the other beach which is dedicated to sports and kite surfing. We sa...
