Domme

We planned to do very little today. The weather is getting hotter and we are getting lazy. Today is our last day in the Dordogne and I don't really want to go. It's a very pretty location, the people are very nice and the campsite is great. It's lunchtime when we decided to go out and we headed to an ancient walled town called Domme which is up on the tallest location just a stones throw from the campsite.

The view from Domme is spectacular and it looks over the whole valley. We could see La Roche Gageac, the restaurant we ate at last night, where we cycled, the campsite and the river as it twists and turns in and out of view.

One week to go and we run out of bog paper

Later on we do some grocery shopping at a local supermarket which is really good fun as we try to work out what the products are, attempt a little French lingo (Execuse moi s'il vous plaƮt. Avez-vous un lait frais?) and got to try what the French eat.

Apparently, Ken and Philip are members of a group of Yorkshire men free-masons who are meeting up at our campsite. That evening we were invited round to have a drink and some nibbles. It was good fun and everyone was very friendly.
