Kit and Carol on the Road

Another one of our rules for living : expect the unexpected. My favorite story from the trip so far comes the past Saturday in Carcassonne. Kit and I went walking in a park by the river. I spied the boules court through a fence so we went to watch. We loved watching the boules players in Paris but are still trying to figure out the rules. So.. the men invited me to join the game, despite the fact that none of us could speak the other's language and I still really didn't know the rules. But I had a very good partner--it was kind of like playing pool with my brother in law Leonard. Except that I am better at boules than pool. Basically it's about throwing some steel balls at a tiny little wooden ball and knocking the opponents balls out of the way. I had great fun and I guess we won.
