THE TEXT:
" Carcassone was a few days ago but
its magic is still in my head now.
I can't believe what beautiful and historic
places there are in France. We stayed
in the Youth Hostel for £9 per night, inside
the walled city. Since then our total cycling
mileage is 900 miles and we hit the Med
(briefly) and now heading north from our
sand dune near Sete. Agen was like
Weston-super-Mare, Sete was like
St Helier and Montpellier just like all the
other lovely sandstone French cites.
Not enough time to see enough of them! "
