Hi guyz,
Today our adventure is bringing us to Toulouse, 2h30 from Montpellier by car.
Toulouse
Toulouse is called the "pink city" due to the color of the traditional local building material, the clay brick.
View from the dock of the Garonne river
In the old city, everything is pink
Is it the Tower of Pisa? It can't be, this one is straight!
We immediately see that Toulouse is a city of nature, parks, docks and remind us Amsterdam with all the bicycle paths. The best idea to visit this city is by bike.
We rent two bicycles of the city and cross the big bridges over the Garonne river to our destination, Place du Capitole, the city center.
The Capitole place is about 12000 m2
The Toulouse city hall on the place
The aracades of the place
We leave our bikes, most of things can be done by walk from the place.
We enter into a library just to smell of the old book dust, to find the inspiration. The inspiration of @siavach bring him to "Vernon Subutex" from Despentes, @elmetro is chosen by "Blockchain - The revolution of confidence".
@elmetro is getting ready for the new world
We make some shopping, we have bought a great gift for the new baby of a friend
A "I am your son" baby body
Lot of emotions this morning right, it's time to lunch...
@siavach chooses a duke salad
@elmetro prefers a tacos
Nothing like a chess game to digest. Dear Steemians I let you guess the winner.
What strategy to choose?
I am loosing or what?
Enough of chess, the sun is with us, it is time to visit the streets of this city and to make great photos. To see everything, you must come by yourself. There are too much things to see, here are some few.
The sun is living and be replaced by the moon. We have rendez-vous with an old colleague of @siavach who is living in Toulouse now: Mohamed.
Mohamed is what we can say a "shishologue", an expert of shisha. He can speak hours and hours about how to do a good shisha, and it is also very interesting to listen to him.
In the smoke of the bar, we spend the rest of the night to discuss about Steam and Steamit. We explain him our trips and our goal to interview Steeamian everywhere we are traveling. He was very interested and motivated to create an account and blogging about shisha.

The shishologue in action
We have choose for a double apple taste
Until this moment, with @siavach we were worried to not find Steemians in France, but Mohamed gives us the conviction to work to grow up the Steemian Community.
If Mohamed become a Steemian and blog about shisha, one day we could interview him...
Maybe we are not interviewers, maybe we are prophets, we travel the world and convert people to the SteeamIt...
Wait and see in the next destination, Vic-Fezensac.
