What to Wear?

I read in the paper that there is a conference this weekend of naturalistes--people who know the local plants and animals.  They are offering workshops, exhibits, and the chance to learn about the biological riches of the Aude. The organizers have gathered artists--painters, photographers-- to help with the teaching, as well as people from the various societies for protection of the environment. The birders will be there as well. What a collection of experts and information in one place!

The article went on to state that there are over 6000 species of flowers that include 37 species of wild orchids.  I can hardly wait to learn what's what.... It runs for two days and I am planning to attend on Saturday, as the bus does not run on Sunday.  
One of the 6000 species

I needed to find out which bus serves Lycee Charlemagne, so I stopped into the tourist office to get the address.  I went on to explain that I was very interested in this conference was was really excited to attend.  However, I think I must have used the wrong word--naturistes, instead of naturalistes.  

I believe that I asked her for the location of the nudist conference....thus the odd look!  But I got the information I needed--it's the #8 bus! Hopefully we will all be fully clothed.
