its a grueling life

 Last night was incredibly grueling - Max is back in town:)
What with new friend Mike for apero with Ryan and Alicia, then a Ty-Rex soiree with Kat and Roy and Jo, it is no surprise that it took a while to start functioning this morning. Gave up trying to work and opted to take my hangover to Corot at the Beaux Arts in Carcassonne. Idled the trip taking snaps, since the railway line is being dusted and you have to take buses (2), so here is St Jean Baptisite above the cafe named after his auntie, St Anne, in Couzia
and here the grey and wet Bishops Palace in Alet les Bains
 Carcassonne was better for weather - see blue sky appearing in the corner of the square - and the Corot expo was wonderful, really worth the trip. No postcards, not allowed to take photos - work was drawn from London's National Gallery, from Germany, Paris, New York and Edinburgh plus private collections. Its on till 21st May and entry is free. Rare opportunity to see this marvelous painter.
 On the bus coming home couldn't help noticing Corots all the way :)
