Haha! That's the cat alright! I was able to rent a motorcycle thanks to his fur donation. It really is a beautiful place, isn't it. I went there with 2 friends and we ended up renting a terrace apartment for 3 days in a nearby town (Rennes-les-Bains), just relaxing, cooking dinners, drinking wine, hiking in the area, soaking in the thermal springs, all thanks to GK3

Yes please do! I dug these old photos up. A fresh-faced 23 year old me with my friends in Rennes-les-Bains / Rennes-le-Château. Sorry, I hope I'm not derailing this forum into my travel slideshow...

I was there only once, around 20 years ago. On my trip back home from Spain, so I had only half a day to spend there. And it was in times without proper internet and mainly data connection, so it was really adventure for me. I have arrived there in the middle of the night, so no chance to find any hotel. So I was sleeping in a car on small hill next to Rennes-le-Château, so when I woke up in the morning, I had nice view to the village together with sunrise behind me. Without proper map (I was using screenshot of the valley from GK3 and then made a picture of one tourist map board in Rennes-les-Bains) and planning (it was quick decision when I realised I am going back home alone in a car, so I can arrive later) I was able to visit whole Rennes-le-Château, Gare de Couiza, Coustaussam Rennes-les-Bains, Roque Negre, Château de Blanchefort, Pech Cardou, Coume Sourde, Fauteuil du Diable aka Devil's armchair, L'Hermitage and Château de Serres.

It was very quick visit and since that time I am planning to make "GK tour". My idea is to take a van and with few friends go to visit locations in Germany (GK2) and France (GK3) again. I am sure it will happen one day...

I see a lot of complaints about the graphics in GK3, but my most recent playthrough was just after completing Mask of Eternity.

The graphics in GK3 instantly become amazing after dealing with hours upon hours of brown hallways.

I have found a gallery of pictures from my visit in Rennes-le-Château many, many years ago. You can find them here.

Great photos, Pluto!

A day without books and games is like...just kidding.  I have no idea.
