By chance, came across this report from 3 years ago.
Up for review by local residents!!

I like this bit: (the italics are mine!)

How To Get Around
It takes about an hour to walk from the north end of Saint Cyprien Plage to the south, if you walk fast.
You can rent a car, but French traffic is dangerous.
Renting a bike is recommended, there are at least two shops where you can do that. But be careful.

The bus that you can take to Aqualand goes through almost the entire town, and it is free.
It may be hard to find the bus stops, but if you ask around it should not be impossible.

And, further down (talking about the region)

Carcassonne is the name of a town with a castle that was originally built by the Romans.
It was renovated when it was popular with Disney type castles, so it does not look as it
did originally, but if you like old castles it is worth a visit.

What a load of old b**ls!!

I don't think Disney was a contemporary of Eugène Emmanuel Viollet-le-Duc (January 27, 1814 – September 17, 1879)
who did the restoration!

That's hilarious, my 6 year old neice could write a better travel article than that, I can't believe it was written 3 years ago, I hope they weren't paid for it....rant rant

Keep up the good work RogerO, never fails to amuse, astound or delight
