... losing it over nothing.

It chucked it down again on the way back and we were saturated by the time we got back to Scooby... So maybe he had the last laugh.

Then on the way back along the road to Scooby some idiot intentionally drove through a puddle to splash Kim... Don't like this town at all, it's full of pric...meanies

Another pretty little village this time famous for its red brick houses. A little more life than the last few villages and even a few shops open, one of which specialised in foie gras. As this is foie gras territory we did as the locals do and bought ourselves some which we will enjoy one night with one of the remaining bottle of champagne we still have in Scooby.

... at the cafes and it's anywhere from 4,50-7,10 (that's eros, so add a **** ton of dollars to that, AND no free refills). The "ruins" were to far away for our time crunch so i didn't get to them, but we went to an old cathedral where the knights of templar used to hang out alot. It was neato. I'll post more soon. Miss and love you all.

We left the bordeaux region today for the dordogne valley - the ancient town of Sarlat - waaaay medieval-
I've determined that there is not enough of france to walk in to justify the amount of food we've been eating...oof. We havent even had any pastries or creme brulee we're so full from lunch and dinner!
we"ll post more in the matin!
Bonne Nuit!

We spent the entire afternoon canoeing down the Dordogne. We packed a lunch and found a nice spot along the river to enjoy some wine and cheese. It was so peaceful and beautiful. Every couple of Kilometers was anothe castle overlooking the river. The river was so flat that we could just float along and enjoy the view.

From the cousins house we moved further west to Neils parents house. They have a place in a beautiful old town. It is an old walled vilage on the hilltop overlooking the valley. The village is full of cobblestone streets, windy narrow alleys and cute little homes. We ate great meals, enjoyed excellent wine and spent time with Neils parents. thank you again for hosting us!

... arranged for me last night. I ended up missing my ride, because as I sat out in the garden eating breakfast, I thought they would knock on the gate. I even poked out my head once or twice, but didn't see anyone. It turned out that I was supposed to wait outside for my ride - oops!

Luckily, Pierre-Henri was on his way to another town, so once again, he was gracious enough to drop me off at the rental place. We had a bit of a chat, and it turns out that ...

... gestured to some baguette, but ended up choosing a loaf of fancy bread that cost 5 euros! Again, it's not even the cost - for 5 euros, she could've had some baguette, a couple of croissants, and some other items. No matter, she got what she wanted.

I think I need to start shopping at jewelry stores in Spain, in the hopes that a beautiful Spanish senorita will sidle up to me and ask "Will you buy me an engagement ring?" My credit card would fly out so ...

Stayed here in Biarritz - thought we would treat ourselves after the rough camping. Very nice indeed! LUXURY indeed.

... books for James and other stuff that is hopefully small. The food down here has been much better. I'm sad to say MY best meal in Paris was at the Hard Rock Cafe, with McDonalds coming second! Tragic I know but here we have had great food and even the kids except Kate have liked the Foie Gras and duck meals not to mention the odd gelati or Creme Brulee. Well we are off to find a different ...
