OMG Have I really been in France 5 weeks without a post

Our first home exchange of the year in France... Sete.  An incredible place.  Home of water jousting... yes they size each other up.... get out their lances, the rowers paddle like hell and then they try to push each other into the water... sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't!  I guess you have to have a sports' brain to get it!  The best bit for me was the 'Umpah' band!

Lovely home, complete with rabbit, tortoise and palm trees.

I was in 7th heaven... fresh seafood everywhere.  Loved Point Court - still a fishing village.

Our house at Sete was on the lake and close to  the Canal du Midi.  We could walk along the shoreline (amazed at all the sunken boats).  We walked to a little fishing village with one restaurant where the plat du jour was the catch of the day.  Parfait!

Of course we had to visit the lighthouse.

Sample the glorious food!

And visit the wonderful surrounding towns.  More next post.
