Moving on today, and after packing up the tent we headed off in the wrong
direction .. another pamphlet had shown Chateau Peyrelade as a good place to
visit
Very much a "local" castle for the lord and his family but not much more ...
although it had impressive fortifications. We suspect that most would have
lived in temporary shacks in the courtyard.
The High Lord's room(s) .. very tight and not the kind of place the history
books lead you to believe in.
Our destination for tonight was somewhere in Cathar country .. no specific
location we would just find a campsite.
We ended up at a village called Moury and the municipal campsite .. memorable
because we pitched on the edge next to the vines stretching to the distance,
and also that the occupants used traditional washing methods in the open air
sinks next to the toilet block.
Welcome to my world of days out. This diary of stories is recorded for my own record - recollections that I cannot guarantee are complete or even if things have been remembered incorrectly. I have added some graphs to the end at the page to show the increase in distances attained as I got fitter and more ambitious now regular weekly walking is more feasible. This pages shows a summary of the latest entries - for indexes use the button bar below.
