Hi again everyone, I am currently in the cutest little village I have ever seen - it is also on Frances Best Villages list. We arrived 2 days ago at night, and sat in a local resturant for some dinner and took in some of the sights of the village. Yesterday we went on a bike ride through the countryside and saw heaps of Castles and beautiful scenery. We rode all day, and there were 3 long hills that we had to climb - we had our bikes on the lowest possible gear, and just had to perservere - one of the hills was 4kms long!!!! By the time we got to the top I was stuffed, and luckily that was the last hill. We went for a boat ride too through a village that has been built into the mountain, and some of the houses were built out of rocks from a landslide in the village a long time ago. We visited only one of the Castles though, as it was becoming a long day with all the cycling. When we returned to Sarlat (were we are staying) we went to a resturant recommended by the locals and had one of the best meals so far on the trip. I think thz smaller the village, the better the food. I had a big sleep in to recoever from my bike ride, and then visited the local market that was on today and had lunch in a park up on the hill. Tomorrow is another long train ride to the next stop - Luchon, and the day after is the hike of the Pyranees - so I best rest for the rest of today and tomorrow to rebuild my energy.
I best go as someone is waiting to use the computer.
