It was a BEAUTIFUL sunny Sunday along the Dordogne river today. Bunny and I followed a trail along the Dordogne river to the next town upstream from Beynac-et-Cazenac.
It took us an hour to get to Castelnaud-la-Chapelle. Once there we had a wonderful lunch of a salad and omelette. Then walked back to the car and went for a drive in the beautiful French countryside. I will just post some of the pictures we took today and let them do the talking.
We could see the above 4 different castles or Chateaus along the trail.
There we are !!!
Canadian Geese ..but in France they are called something different … Dinner. I think thats why they started running when they saw us.
More wonderful pictures:
I found this car in the restaurant parking lot with a State of Washington license plate. Next time we come to France I think WE are gonna drive instead of fly.
We have so many beautiful photos that we are working on uploading pictures to our photo album so that we can review all the photos we have taken on the trip. It is password protected but I think you can figure it out from the hint…..
Time for bed … good night ..













So gorgeous!
So WHAT are Canada geese called in France?
Besides dinner I mean. German geese? Belgium geese?
This is Bunny using Marty’s computer.
I think they are called “geese”. 🙂 Maybe Perigord geese because we’re in the Perigord region? Don’t know! We did try some foie gras at a market the other day. It tasted like butter so I guess we liked it but not sure we would want to eat a lot of it??
It is mighty pathetic when one of the bloggers comments on a blog. But I am soooo not above being pathetic…??
Marty wrote this while I was sleeping. Now he’s sleeping… So I’ll comment thusly: I think Marty should take over the blogging cuz he makes me laugh. How about you guys? He cracks me up… ??
Love the beautiful pics! I’ve wanted to see Dordogne for some time now and am glad to see it through your eyes! Hopefully I’ll get there someday. It’s fun to read both of your writing! Different perspectives, both great!
Bunny and Marty,
What a beautiful trip! I especially like the photos of the Chateau country. Evelyn and I just have to get over there someday soon. Keep posting more of those great pics.
Best,
Dave P.
Hey Dave! Thanks for reading this and commenting! We will call when we get back. I would love to have a wine-fueled evening of silliness with you and Evelyn!
