The sun is finally shining in toulouse

The forecast for today was for sunshine and 26 degrees and as the forecast for the last few months has pretty much been rain every day and has been correct mum and I were banking on it being right about the sun too and it was!

The plan was to pack a picnic and collect the kids up at the end of school which is 12.30 on a Wednesday and head to a lake where the kids could swim if they wanted to. We had been to lake Samatan a few months ago in the winter and knew it had a small man made beach and slides into the lake so decided to head there. The slide wasn't open but there were a couple of other families on the beach. We had our picnic then the kids got into their togs and headed into the warm water. The kids had a great time splashing around. I am unsure how clean the water was but the kids loved it.














After the swim we walked around the lake then jumped into the car in search of a much needed ice cream.



We couldn't find any dairy like shops so ended up going to the supermarket and getting a box of magnums. We wandered across the road to a bench and discovered upon a pétanque game and a lovely little walk way. The perfect end to a lovely outing.
