Scouting Trip: Toulouse 2026

Our first scouting trip of 2026 was to Toulouse. In fact it was more of a taking the train test for Athena. She passed the 40 minute trip with flying colors and even tolerated the muzzle on the going and returning legs.

We just walked around the train station and Les Ramplas areas. Although, we did visit a great steak house, pet store, coffee bar, and several real bars of course. It was quiet windy and chilly. Anyway, here are the photos.
