Limoux Carnival

After saying goodbye to  the kids at the airport we left on Icelandic air.  Made all connections and landed in Paris only 1 1/2 hours late.   Started figuring out train schedules to Carcassonne.  Caught the AM train and spent the night in Carcassone.  Brief visit to Cacassonne Castle.  We’ll go back on a day trip.  Checked into Hotel du Soleil Terminus, a 1914 built hotel with a view of the magnificent mideval castle.

Arrived in Limoux around 1 pm on Saturday, 3/1/17  and walked to our AirBnB.  A small 1 bedroom space a few blocks from the town center square.

Limoux has an annual Carnival de Limoux which begins in January and runs every weekend through March.  Same timing as Mardi Gras but not nearly as wild.  Caught the last 2 days of the parade and festivities.

Basically,  trying to get our feet on the ground.  Trying to figure out a routine that will keep up healthy even though,  for the next year, we will have no routine.
