Woke to mist hanging over the lake, but it soon cleared. We set off for Albi and made good time, arriving there about 11.30am.
Leaving Le plan d'eau Camping site
Ant had checked where to park via his camper contact app. There were two carparks for camper vans, one near the cathedral which was full and the other by the cemetery, which the latter turned out to be the better option for us. Plenty of parking and waste water dump. A short walk to the centre over the bridge.
Enjoyed Albi, the main attraction is the red brick built Cathedral and Lautrec museum. Took a tour on the little train with English speaking info via headphones.
