Carcasonne and the Camargue

We had been in the Languedoc area a year before with Dom, Tash and Neil, so it was fun to be back. We spent two nights in Carcassonne and two nights on the coast near Montpellier in a town called Palavas les Flots; which is seasidy and tacky but pleasant never the less. We cycled a long way along the canals in Carcassonne and Palavas. This area is great for barging, by the way, if anyone has that holiday in mind. We visited Nimes and Arles; both towns have Roman amphitheatres that are well preserved. This area is also renowned for the French style bullfighting, but whenever we have been here there have been no bullfights on. The weather is hot and sunny all the time now, but it does generally cool down nicely at night.
