Toulouse, France - 17th July 2007

By: Mood

On our way back home, as I was thinking about Becka, and home in Australia, Mood took me to this new shop

As you might know, Toulouse is going to host the next rugby world cup in September, and here rugby is a very popular sport (we even play rugby on the Place du Capitole !!!)

In this shop, we met a charming young seller that allowed us to take special pictures for Becka

On this one you can see the different teams .. I laughed at the name they call it : Poule .. like chicken or goose!!!!
Will you be able to recognize each flag ?

As you can see on this picture, the local rugby team (called Stade toulousain) celebrated its 100 years

And look at this map of the world showing the international rugby player who played with the Stade Toulousain ... Maybe, my journey around the world will look like this !!!!
