We’re always in the mountains for the Winter & we ski into Spring. Then we’re back in the Summer. Now we’re in the mountains of France for the Autumn. Plus taking in the Rugby World Cup: Part Two. NEW
Week Two
Last week it was Wales v Fiji in Bordeaux and then we headed up to the Pyrenees to the town of Ax-Les-Thermes for a few days in the mountains.
We went hiking and biking:

It was a shame to leave the Pyrenees.

We were in the Stade de Nice for Wales v Portugal on Saturday.

On Sunday it’s England v Japan.
Next we’re heading into the Alps for more mountain adventures.
Quite where we are going and what we are doing remains unclear – we’ll keep you posted.
We headed over to Nice from the Pyrenees stopping off in Carcassonne with its medieval city.
By night the city looked spectacular.

We watched France v Uruguay in the street.

The next day it was a visit to the medieval city.
It was restored in the 19th century and is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
