Yesterday was our first full day in Beynac. The weather was glorious, which it really must be to do this amazing village justice. It’s so very beautiful!

A few photos from around the town:

This is where we are staying, a sweet but tres old building up a winding cobblestone path off the main drag.

We are not staying here (☺😥) but it is just a few yards from our place. So cute!!

In the afternoon, we made the torturous (for Bunny’s knees) climb up to Beynac castle. It was well worth the effort!

Once we had climbed to the top, we decided to first have lunch at a café with a view of the castle. The waiter was great; he grabbed the chalkboard with the plats du jour on it and brought it to our table:

Marty and the view from our table (and some cute French kid photo bombing us:).

The castle was also a treat. Parts of it date to the 12th century; it feels a lot more medieval than the la-de-da Châteaux of the Loire. And the views were spectacular! Here are some photos of the castle:

And the views:

All for now!
