Leaving Paris

Heading to Narbonne this morning via train, where we'll be heading to Homps to pick up our Charter boat for a week on the Canal du Midi.

The countryside south of Paris reminds me a lot of northern Minnesota, and also of the Central Valley in California.

The train really scoots along; hardly any stops.

The first stop was in Nime; about 2/3 of the way. Things change after Nime. The houses look different; more like southern California. Probably Spanish influence.

Second stop at Montpellier. Really looks like southern California.

Next stop, Sete; on the Mediterranean.

Next stop, Agde.

Next stop, Beziers, and then Narbonne, and we're off.
