France 2000 contd.

Later, I go for a cycle on the Canal du Midi Pan Parasol trees line the canal

There is a Fete to celebrate the Vendenge in a nearby town.

 

A splendid red ????

I know not what.

 

This one I do know, a 'Maigret' Citroen You wanna buy a goose?

There's music too

 

and a little technical explanation on how to distill brandy

 

onward towards St Chinian. Every so often I stop for the views and the odd photo.

A jolly flag flying from the church tower in Villepassans

 

Typical landscape for the area
Olonzac, if I'm not mistaken

A grape picking machine seen in Olonzac.

 

Cirrus clouds stream in from the north, but still no rain.

 

The leaves are turning on the vines.
They look 100% ready to me.

I only play golf in France. Margaret and I like to swing the odd club and there are some lovely courses nearby.

 

Margaret drives us home via the mountain route. Its scenic all right, but not to be taken after a heavy night on the bottle with its many twisty bends.

 

The following day, we go into Narbonne for a spot of lunch. this is the starter...
...and the main course Madame day dreams...
