Paris and Toulouse

Here is the first part of pictures I took from France! Dont forget there are pictures below!!!

So Off i went on my week holiday from work to meet up with Allison in Paris and to tour around the south west of France. We were off to Toulouse and Bordeaux with a day trip to Carcassonne for good measure!!!
In this album you've got Paris where i met Allison and then went to meet Yelba! And then Yelba brought Another two people i worked with at camp who i didnt realize were back in Paris so that was a really great added bonus!!!! We had lunch together and a amble around Paris...to Notre Dame...specifically to see the Charlemagne statue and then to the Effile Panda exhibit....random i know. It was some random exhibit for WWF....and i badly wanted to steal on eof those little pandas.....the only security guard was taking pictures of someone i totally could have nabbed one....but im sure i would have been caught!!!!

Then we took a train down to Toulouse and walked to what we warmly refer to as our Accommodation Facility, as it was no where near either a hostel or a hotel. But it was dirt cheap and one metro stop or two from the city centre. It was all round sketchiness from the paper sheets, to the giant hole burned in my square blanket...square...for a rectangle bed....And the bathroom which had a shower head and a curtain just hanging out....no raised shower area...and as the caption says...a broom to sweep up the water...great....

So we did lots of walking the next dya and people watching in the squares especially in the morning with all the little old French people. French people im learning are not as hunched as old scottish people...just saying....We found a nice park where children were playing on a giant rotating wheel....that i nick named the danger wheel there is no way it was safe...NO WAY...

And then we met up with my friend James from Uni last year and he gave us a tour of a few churches and the university where he's on exchange! And the river which we never would have ventured down to!!!

The next day i think was our carcassonne day so ill leave that for the next round of picutres....But as you see in these, St Thomas was buried in the Jacobin church which is SO great!!

The whole area is heaped in Cathar Heretical history which i find amazing and fascinating!!! And i dont care if no one else does but anyway so i was just so in my element and took millions of pictures so enjoy Part one and look forward to parts 2-5.....i took on average 100 pictures a day.... YAY!!!!

Oh and please...the title of the post....I decided we needed to name our trip...and Einbahn refers to an unfortunate afternoon roaming Salzburg on our last trip thinking Einbahn was a attraction rather than the German word for One Way....and well the rest is self explanitory.....

Enjoy!!!
