I am Dulles Airport waiting on my flight for my return to Toulouse. I am going back for 2.5 months. I am very excited to return to Toulouse and continue my adventure. I will get to revisit things that I enjoyed the last time I was there and I hope find new and different things to learn about and appreciate.

I am looking forward to having Friday night dinners at Le Panache (@le_panache_31 IG). It was great to get to know the guys who ran the restaurant and the great cooking. I already have reservations for Friday night.

The run group Run in Toulouse (@runintoulouse_officiel IG) was a great way to set the city and to meet some people. I am looking forward to running with the group again and seeing the people that I met through the group. (Also, getting back into good running shape since I was particularly lazy during the cold months.) My new Airbnb is next to one of the paths along the Garonne river so it should be fun to explore new routes on the weekend long runs.

The new Airbnb is slightly farther from downtown than my last one but it is in a great location – as I said near the river with easy access to the Place de Capitole and other areas that interest me. From picture it looks nice and a bonus is that it has an elevator as the apartment is on the fifth floor. It will be fun to explore a new neighborhood.

I am flying through Brussels this time and that adds a new airport to my list of airports. It is always fun to add new countries and airports to the places I have been. I know other people probably do not find that as interesting as I do but I keep lists of countries and airports I have been too. One of my fun facts and just interesting items is that I have been to 3 airports in Myanmar. I never would have guessed that I would have been to Myanmar let alone have been in 3 airports. Somewhat in the same vein, I have been to four cities in Wyoming – Casper, Cody, Laramie and Jackson Hole. I thought I would ski in Wyoming but never guess I would have been to the rest.

I will start posting daily so I can remember my next episode!
