Day 6: Rest Day in Carcassonne
A welcome change from getting up early and sitting on a saddle, today we
strolled leisurely into town, found a bar and had breakfast. Several
croissants, pain au raisins and chocolatines washed down with hot coffee
and a tea for me.

A bit of sight-seeing around the Cité and then it was
time for lunch! This we took a long time over as we were in no rush to
go anywhere. Salads as a main course and while I drank beer, Shaun and
Barry had jugs of cider. In fact it wasn't the food that kept us there
but the constant flow of drink. Eventually we made our way back to the
hotel and went for a swim. Lovely.

No sooner had we digested lunch than it was evening and
time to eat again! Off to the square again and this time we had steaks
and frites, loading ourselves up for tomorrow's last push to Narbonne.
