WEATHER REPORT - A closet full of clothes and not a thing to wear!

I have posted a link on the right side of our blog for you to check out the average temps and precipitation for Limoux during the month of May. This may help you in selecting the weight of clothing to pack.

Some things to keep in mind:

Let's keep it casual.
While you may wish to bring along a couple of dressy shirts or tops and a good pair of slacks, you will find that for most of the trip, casual is the best way to go! We will eat in a restaurant or two and if we follow with tradition, at a farmer's home, but even for these special nights you may dress-down.

Cotton slacks or jeans, a t-shirt (I might suggest - without big slogans), and a light waterproof jacket or sweater (just in case) will be quite acceptable most of the time. (Ron will tell you that a nice scarf tied around the neck can dress up any outfit!)

There is a laundry in Limoux that you can hike to or hand wash your lighter things and hang to dry in your room or the court yard. Pack clothes that do not require ironing. (What is an iron, anyway?)

Good walking shoes are essential!

Leave your flashy jewelry at home.

Those of you who will travel to Paris after, may want to take something snazzier - better yet, buy clothes in Paris! Wayne will give you some fashion buying tips.

Linda, Everyone knows an iron is a club you swing at a golf ball!

You might also want to bring an iron to curl your hair Ron! You want to make a good impression when we go for dinner at the farmer's house don't you?

Just remember to pack your voltage adapter.
