My mom flew out of Toulouse on Sunday, so we headed down a night early since she had to be at the airport at 5am! We checked into our hotel and jetted off to Carcassonne for the day. (Carcassonne is where we visited for our 2 year anniversary and its only 45 minutes from Toulouse) To refresh your memory, it is a medieval town that is still operating today complete with remparts (city walls), cobblestone streets, a gothic church, and of course, a chateau. We had a GREAT day! It was a bit windy and chilly, but we made frequent stops in the local artisan shops and candy stores. I came away with some new shades and my mom got 2 cute new shirts and a trendy purple leather handbag- its AMAZINGLY beautiful! (And how adorable is my Mom's jacket? I bought it for her birthday and wish I had one for myself!)
The below are Baby Canon's pictures- she is such a show off ;) Now if I could only understand her older sibling, Photoshop Elements, I would be set!
The French always tell me I Must visit Carcassonne for the architecture, but I had no idea there was great shopping there as well!

P.S. I miss my Abby-girl (and of course, Logan Misegades)...Chris said we could NOT come next week.
I can't believe I still haven't gotten to Carcassonne, it's way up on the list. Your photos are great! :)
