Canal du Midi

As you may have gathered from my posts there are lots of delicious foods and many delicious drinks to be had here in France. I don't have the will to resist them, so that means I better pull out my dusty running shoes in an effort to stay fit. I am getting married in a few years after all and I have wedding dresses to think about. Luckily for me, the thought of running again didn't seem so bad after Dave and I discovered the Canal du Midi in our very own backyard. We went exploring along the canal the other day and it is beautiful. We even came across this amazing park where families were having barbeques and couples were snuggling under trees. I could walk along the canal for hours and the thought of running along it actually makes me want to run. With scenery like this, maybe I'll actually like exercising!?! I know, that's crazy talk...but I mean who wouldn't want to run in a beautiful place like this:

Beautiful

There were tons of house boats parked along the canal

Came across a winery in somebody's yard

Part of the park we came across

More of the park, it was huge

Cute little French house beside a huge field of sunflowers

Cute little French neighbourhood

Would love to live in one of these apartments

Look proof! Me running in a totally unstaged  photo

Like I said, I could get used to running with surroundings like these.

Until next time...

Au revoir
