Sorry to have made you cry, and yearning, but as we journey through life, sometimes we encounter unexpected places that are so beautiful. One morning I was walking our spaniel when he disappeared and I heard a splash. Typical of spaniels, they like water. Jack had only leapt into the Canal du Midi.

Well, I was never wonderful at directions, preferring to ramble, and forgot the Midi was so closeby. This picture is typical of the canal, which people of all ages and interests visit. Lined with Plane trees, the canal is serene and brings peace and stillness to a troubled heart.

Perhaps this is another place that you could visit one day? Book a week's cruise on a barge. It's not expensive and a week on the water feels like a fortnight. The Canal du Midi is 240 km long, so you would be in for a wonderful holiday.

May you find such a beautiful place, and happiness, guilloche.
