Travel days are the worst. Today we caught a 6:30am bus to the Dublin airport, 9:20 flight to Carcassone (France), bus to the train station, train to Toulouse, 4 hour layover, train to Boussens, bus to St Girons arriving at 9:15pm, where (finally) Ivan, our new farm host, will pick us up and drive us home. That's 2 buses, 2 trains, one airplane, and one car. Luckily we managed to fit in a movie in Toulouse, My Blueberry Nights, a mediocre movie but the only English one playing. That was a nice break in the middle of the day.
France is country #6, if you count one day in Austria, and we agreed that it has become a bit of a blur. There's a "wait, where are we now?" aspect every time we arrive in a new place, especially since we see mostly countryside and they all look pretty similar. We'll be here in France for a little over two weeks and it sounds like the place will be fun. We'll see!
