Carcassonne Day 2
Sunday 1st October
Carcassonne all but goes to sleep on a Sunday. The public transport does not operate, lots of the bars, restaurants and all of the shops are closed. It was interesting to find that the big supermarket (a national chain) was open but after 12:45 they cannot sell alcohol.
Being Sunday we went to church. Our local, Saint Vincent. We went along to listen to a special organ recital. The organist played 4 pieces. It was magnificent to listen to.
We walked on up to the citadel or fortress on top of a rocky outcrop (Cite de Carcassonne). It was gradual climb, crossing over Aude River and winding our way to the top.
