After spending a bit of time in the French Riviera, it was back to our original plan. We were heading to Toulouse/Carcassonne area. Arnold's friend told him about this area and told us that we MUST go see it and that it was his favorite area of France. Since we were open to suggestions we decided to check it out (plus his friend was talking about this area non-stop). Neither of us had ever heard about this area, but it sound great.
We were really blown away. Very, very beautiful area of France - we actually didn't expect to love this area as much as we did. Once we arrived in Toulouse we rented a car and drove to Carcassonne and spent a few days in that region touring around. First, I didn't realize that we would be sooo close to Spain again and second, it was very, very quiet. I don't think they get as many tourist to this areas as other parts of France so it was very different from the areas we had been in.
We spent our days driving to the different cities in the area and visiting some wineries :) - win, win for Me. We understand now why Arnold's friend was so pumped about this area - it's not every day that you get to drive in the Pyrenees Mountains visiting old ruins.
Love Melissa and Arnold
Sorry tried to upload pics, but it's not working and I have run out of time. Maybe later tonight?
