Lazy Bones
On the beach again. This is the life. We're going to have pizza at the beach restaurant for lunch.

Fresh Water
We're swimming in a lake today. There's something slightly scarey about going really deep in a lake - far more so than in the sea. It makes me wonder how many drowned people there are below.

Another Cathar Site
The good news today was that my bank cards appear to have returned to full functionality by magic. The not so good news was that this didn't prevent me from nearly stranding us petrolless in the middle of nowhere on our way to Queribus (a very impressive castle on top of a mountain peak) due to silliness. Never mind - we made it there and back in the end.
Ooh the other thing is that last night we had a storm! But not an ordinary storm - the lightning was continuous, flashing like the photographers do when someone is evicted from Big Brother, but weirdly there was no rain and no thunderclaps. Just an awful lot of wind, and our patio parasol turned inside out.

Plage and Plastic
A day on the beach today. Not much happened except that sam learned to surf. On the way back we popped in to the supermarket for supplies and both my credit card and debit card were declined. I hope they work tomorrow otherwise we'll be stranded here forever with no money and no petrol to get back. Hmm.
