Canal du Midi

Fresh off the catamaran, we have just scheduled another voyage, this time for 10 days next April-May on the Canal du Midi with the McIlvains. For many years we have thought of doing it, and when Betsy mentioned it a while ago, we thought, "Why not?" And so we are committed.
               Here is our cruise.

This is the land of the  Cathar (see below) and the cassoulet. Hurrah for that. I'll bet the food is better than it was in Ireland in 1999. And we'll see what other trouble we can get into.

  2. This will be fabulous. I want a postcard from Homps. (How do the french pronounce that, exactly?)

  3. Homps : we pronounce it as it is written : "omps" (without H)

  4. Better stay away from the Cssoulet (ooo, it rhymes...) unless you plan to jog alongside the boat for much of the way...sounds like a great truip!
