The Beziers Blog

 

Hello Everybody,

 I wrote the following a  few weeks ago thinking I could use it at some point. This is said point. We have had a fair amount of rain this week so have not been out and about as much as usual. I am not going to moan about the weather though because the garden has really benefitted from a good soaking.All of the vegetables that we planted are starting to push through,it bodes well for stocking the freezer. We are hoping that the sun shines this week-end because we would like to drive into the mountains and a visit a place called La Salvetat sur Agout. Fingers crossed.

 As you may have heard on the news we  had a blustery day down here. With the winds  gusting up to 140 Km an hour it was not really conducive for sight seeing or walking around. This has given me the opportunity to show you all some photographs that we took in one of the parks in Beziers in January.  As you can see the entrance is quite impressive, as is the memorial which is situated just inside the gates. This is the view that people see when they arrive at Beziers railway station.  As we walk around the park there are several statues and fountains.

 

Whilst strolling around the winding pathways one of the surprises that we see is the amphitheatre which is occasionally used for open air concerts. 

 

Continuing our walk we pass the childrens play area and the small lake which has a good variety of wildlife.   

 

 

 

On leaving the park we can see a number of impressive buildings.  You never know, we may win the Lotto one day and be able to afford one overlooking the park - what a splendid view to wake up to. 

Short and sweet - hope you all enjoy the pictures.  Hopefully soon the wind will drop and we will go further afield (another one of the walks).
