The weather was definitely on our side as we took my parents to go tour Albi today. They enjoyed the sites of St. Cecile, the Palais de Berbies and the Pont Vieux (1000 year old bridge). While walking around the shops we stopped for some ice cream as well as lunch and some splashing around in the town square fountains – I love those things!
I think that Canada should adopt more of these town plaza/piazza/platz/squares complete with tonnes of sidewalk cafes and kid friendly fountains. It makes a town much more inviting to visit. I love sitting in the cafe and just watching the action all around us – très cool! I will defintely miss that.
After Albi, we went home for some swimming and a fabulous wine, cheese and pâté dinner – mmmmmmmm.
