It started raining last night with thunder and lighting. The forecast calls for more gray skies, but I am optimistically putting on sun screen any way ;-)
We started the morning with a walk to the bakery for fresh croissant. One nice thing about the rain is that it clears the air of all the pollen that the plane trees are putting out! It also washes down the sidewalk which is the favorite place for people to have their dogs poop!
This morning I am off to the market Victor Hugo for some eggs and cheese. This town loves both Woodrow Wilson and Victor Hugo many streets and fountains dedicated to both. Wilson because he brought the US into WWI and Hugo because of his writing.
It is a busily metropolis so different than the states in that all the old buildings are very much a part of present day Toulouse they are not the past they are the present history. So a 700 year old house is just a house and for us a 100 year house is a historic sight!
