Hello From Toulouse!

Woah, we have had a whirlwind few days. After Strasbourg we went to Toulouse which was an absolutely adorable place. We stayed in a hotel right in the middle of the “old town”, and I have perhaps never seen streets so winding and tiny but packed with people, shops, and restaurants. Wow. It was delightful, despite the rainy day-off we spent there. Check out the beautiful river Garonne.



I went to the Antiques Museum and learned of the vast history which is amazing. So many thousands of years were under my feet. My favorite thing was that the museum itself was built on ruins from the first century, and in the basement I could actually walk through the walls and tombs. Wow! Something about many many years of history, walls that people built with their hands 2000 years ago, it chills me to be amongst it.

This city was a college town, and it was totally packed with apartments, shops, and chic little dining places. But it was very common that right next to these new buildings would be an ancient structure. Check out this archway and tower stuck between two apartment buildings.



It’s a beautiful life and France has got it going on!
Heh heh!
Love!
