Canal du Midi – we’re off!

Map: Google

Bernie and I are off for a couple of weeks to France. After a rail journey via Paris, we’ll be cycling from Carcassonne along the route of the last two hundred kilometres of the Canal du Midi, which cuts across southern France from west to east, emerging at the Port of Sète on the Mediterranean sea.

The holiday is arranged by Headwater Holidays. We’ve used them before for cycling and they are very thorough. Our luggage will be transferred between hotels by them, allowing us to enjoy the scenery and the odd cafe along the way…

I’ve left two LUCA posts in the toaster. I’ll restart the Noir posts when I get back, as they need a lot of input to do justice to those who contribute and I’ll only have my phone and iPad – and the wifi can be dodgy in such remote parts!

I will be sending some photos and updates to the WordPress site and on FaceBook, so you’ll be able to join us on our adventures. If I get chance, I’ll throw in a poem or two along the way…

Thank you for your continued support of my efforts. See you in two weeks!

Steve.
