CASB organized an educational trip to the south of France for us last weekend. We visited the charming town of Albi and the massive castle-village in Carcassonne, and then we hiked up a mountain in Montsegur for some dizzying views of the French countryside.
Every meal we ate in France was amazing, except for one disgusting buffet-style lunch we had at this weird rest stop. The bus dropped us off at a gas station, and we walked along the shoulder of the highway until we arrived at this small open-air complex called "La Village Catalana" that consisted of a couple closed, dark restaurants, one open, fluorescent cafeteria (where we ate), and a gift shop that smelled way too strongly of potpourri. The whole thing seemed like it should be the setting of a dream or a video game - you know in N64 Goldeneye, when you want to play someone one-on-one, you have a choice of "places" in which to duke it out? It was like one of those, just an eerily deserted complex. Jordyn and I half expected to look up and see two moons in the sky.
Anyway, here's a video I put together from the footage of the trip:
Enjoy.
