In the footsteps of the donkey from Vaux
Poor donkey. According to legend, the miller tied a rope around its neck and hoisted it up to the top of the roof so that it could graze on a tuft of grass that was sticking out. You can guess how it ended. In its memory, come and take a walk in these pretty valleys of the Lauragais.
