Great pics, Cardy. Years ago I read several books about the Cathars, the Albigensian Crusades and Carcassonne. Nice to see the photos.

Frankly Pup, I had never heard of the place but that is not unusual there are thousands of wonderful castles and villages that I have never heard of, or even seen my own town from the air until I got a great link of of our Marina today.

Often one has never heard of a place and the suddenly you hear about it everywhere. I had never heard of Obidos in Portugal until my daughter went there, or saw the castle in Sintra although I spent time around that area.

It is amazing, we wake up each day and learn something new about our world and the history of unusual places.
