Carcassonne
September 18th
I have always wanted to visit the old medieval walled city of Carcassonne, surrounded by its double ring of city walls, with three kilometers of ramparts including 52 watch towers, and I was not disappointed. Difficult to describe ~ you have to go there. The pictures just give a taste of what it is like.
Spent the morning walking the inner walls, and took a restricted tour of other parts of the walls and ramparts not accessible to the general tourists, which was well worth it.
On to the coast in the afternoon, parking in another Aire at Leucante Plage.
