Canal du Midi - Day 2

Day 2 started off calm, sunny and +15/59. So breakfast on the deck.

And we headed just after 10AM for this morning's tour.

To the Ensérune archaeological site and museum, featuring ruins and artifacts from a 2,000+ year old Roman settlement.

On our way back to the barge we stopped in Capestang at a local wine producer for wine tasting. Languedoc is not Burgundy, and these wines for the most part, while interesting, were pretty forgettable.

Meanwhile, back on barge, Ang met us with the usual welcome back drinks.

Since the wind had picked up, we headed inside for lunch.

And resumed our cruise up the canal.

As the weather started to turn cloudy and windy.

Now windy and rainy outside, we passed the afternoon drinking wine and playing Trivial Pursuit, the Canadian version. Hah, that was a hoot.

Happy hour, hors d'oeuvres and more wine.

And Ang with tonight's menu.

Fabulous potato and truffle tortellini.

Wonderful wine.

And amazing pork medallions.
