France in 2003
 

A friend researching for her trip came across an old trip report of mine from 2003.
Posting it here because it was one of my best and so I can store it here.

It was very interesting report, cigale, you covered a lot of ground. We're not too far from Tarbes and Mirande. There's good food around here but you have to work hard to find it.

After almost 6 years, we have a few (very few) local favorites and a few "special occasion" places--unless we want to head in to Toulouse, not too appealing on cold winter nights.

I stayed at Sheila's (of Scotland) house near Tarbes.

Very nice, I have been to a few of those places.
The word Jerry gave me little twinge..but these were your happier times.
Thanks for sharing.

Mimi..great to see you provided your SlowTravel report...superb, Nice memories of Jerry, too. You stayed in many towns and places where we did and took some of the routes into the Pyrenees. All in all, a report that is so worthwhile to re-read. Thank you mim! Happy Dats to you. I've had more than my share of close losses these past 18 months, so I know the drill.

Good health and good times for you..so nice to see you at the Boston GTG. Happy you got to see Syd...he's quite an addition to our family!
Here's to The Lizard Lounge in Cambridge!!!
