Had an extended break to conform to driving regulations for Roget.
This was no ordinary rest stop, but one with a
boat house,
a tourist info
center and
a hotel. Made for some nice pics, but the highlight of the
stop was the food. Not settling on a sandwich or stomething from the
store, I decided to go full blown
cafeteria
mode and bought a beef
stew meal with a side of zucchini.
Best beef stew consumed in France. I even bought
dessert. Washed it all down with a V8 kind of tomato juice blend
purchased in Sarlat.
The Belvédère de la Cité rest stop car park is located near the city of
Carcassonne in France. You can park your truck on one of the free places that
are here to take a break during your trip in France.

This was a rest stop which had no place to eat or stuff to
buy...only
trees, parking spaces and open land. Some information about
Carcassonne history can also be found on the grounds. The only reason for the stop was to get "that"
one of a kind shot
of Carcassonne and the surrounding area around it. Apparently we went
there off season.....
