The weather has been rather dreary for most of our time here thus far, cool and damp. Its 55 degrees in January but I'm getting the sense that everything is a little more sleepy than usual and the palm trees on some of the streets make me wonder what the city is like come Spring and Summer.
Sunday though was really bright and sunny so with nothing to do I wandered around the city. It gave me a chance to get off my usual routes and get lost in the tiny streets. When I say lost, I mean not knowing where I was but always knowing how to get back where I came from.
Place d' Comidie- the main square
Cafe I stumbled upon
Really Cool Courtyard
What Most Streets look like
I found lots of really unique shops, at least two cafes per square, bars that looked like they would be ruckus had it not been 4 o'clock on a Sunday, and a Cathedral older than dirt.

I like the really cool courtyard, too. I often photograph the metal work in Europe...some wonderful designs. You may not be the architect, but you do have the eye for it.
How's your French? You haven't really mentioned that. Maybe Dad has a point!
