Houseboat, mannequin and weathercock

Moored along the Canal du Midi at Gardouch, a nice inhabited houseboat with a silver mannequin inside and a "fishy" weathercock (the photo with the fish is totally blur !!).
This mannequin makes me think to this post of The Hague Daily Photo.

Beluga

A strange plane is the sky. Perhaps you don't know but the main industrial site Airbus is located at Toulouse.
The famous A380 and others A340-A330-A320 are assembled here but most of the parts are coming from others associated factories (England, Germany, Spain and France). So based on a A300 structure, Airbus engineers have designed a specific plane to ship parts from site to site. This plane is called the Beluga due to its particular shape.

Bell Tower of Baziège - Night View

A night view of the same post.
This kind of Bell Tower is typical our area "Le Lauragais".
It's called "clocher-mur" (bell tower wall) because the bell-tower is in the continuation of the main facade.
