I was a little under the weather this past weekend. I had a cold and so decided to take it easy. It was also cold and wet so thought staying in was the best plan. It did give me time to contemplate what I wanted to do my last week here before I head back… Read More Last Week in Toulouse
It snowed last night but very briefly and none of it stuck to the ground. It happened while I was at dinner at Le Panache. Enzo came into the bar area with a smile on his face and il neige – its snowing. I went out and took a quick picture – you could not… Read More It did snow
I went to lunch at Reflets for lunch. It has become one of my preferred restaurants in Toulouse. I have made reservations for dinner on my last night in Toulouse there.

For a number of years after finishing my last marathon – October 2011, I lost my love for running. I continued running and participated in some races but did not really challenge myself for any of them. I would still run with the groups that I belonged to Pacer’s Social and Nova Rogue Runners and… Read More I guess I like running again
I have four weeks left in Toulouse before I return to Alexandria. My stays are based on the Tourist Visa requirements. I can only stay 90 days in any 180 period.
