Hotel guard

This suit of armour stands proud at the bottom of the stairs in our hotel. We have come to the end of a little break in Carcassonne- perhaps one day too many without our own transport. But we have stayed in the most lovely hotel right in the heart of the medieval city. So lovely to wander around after the tourists have left. It is like living in a castle. Even better that we have been upgraded to a suite- this never happens to me usually!
We have sampled many red wines from the region and had delicious French meals. Last night I had the most wonderful tarte tatin. I don't think another will ever beat it.
