A view near Narbonne


Some years ago I stayed in a small and squalid campsite just east of Narbonne. From the site, one could see "La Clape," a dry and stony ridge that shelters the city from the Mediterranean. It's an unfortunate geographical feature, I think. Although the sea is only a few kilometres distant, Narbonne - a few canals notwithstanding - feels like an inland town, and a small provincial one at that.
