Toulouse

A spontaneous decision brought us to a small city in France-Toulouse for a short get-away.



 

Pin and i felt so helpless when it comes to food ordering and asking for directions. Our index finger was the most useful communication tool throughout the trip. We were so relief when our youngest sister arrived. I was truly amazed listening to her speaking in French! 
A whole weekend full of pastries made me sick. To be honest, I did actually missed UK just after a day in Toulouse. What a shame..

We took a train to Foix (pronounced as FoA) on Sunday. It was a rush as we got the timing wrong ( it is 1 hr ahead of uk). The ticketing lady was so excited seeing us running for the train, shouting out to us that there were only 4 minutes before the train left! 
It was snowing very heavily. Foix was painted in white.


 A French lady was so kind enough to drive us to the university when we were lost. 
Shan's lecturer called a cab for us to get back. 


Another long delay made us missed the connecting flight back to Manchester. We stayed a night in Munich, Germany.

A very brief meeting up with family. 
A weekend full of warmth in heart.
An enjoyable adventure. 
An excellent experience.
Another dream that came true...

and...

A hard decision to drop. 

Just hoping that i am not being a coward nor an idiot,
and pray that i did made the right choice.
