Toulouse Tour 2024 - return to Killarney (for some...)
And so the last day in France arrived.
Checking out - we once again paid homage to the local public transport network by catching the tram (thanks Tisseo) to Aeroscopia - a museum that captures the history of French aviation - from Bleriot (first man to fly the English Channel / La Manche in 1909) through the Caravelle - which along with the Boeing 707 ushered in the age of the passenger jet - to Concorde and now Airbus.
And with that - it was time to head back to Ireland. First the by now familiar walk to a tram from Aeroscopia and after the tram - a repeat of our Tuesday evening expedition back to Toulouse airport.
Final job - before leaving - was to purchase another large holdall to carry all the stuff bought in Toulouse and then once more through security and to the plane..
Final word about the trip back.....
Thanks to....
Sharon, Cait, and Karen....
Catherine....
Breda....
David, Ed, and Pierce...
And most of all to Ger Moynihan whose efforts to organise this trip cannot be adequately measured.
Meanwhile, half a world away... a Killarney scrum-half meets a veritable legendary 9
