LAZY LASCAZERES

After something like about 29 days on the road around France we are safely back in Lascazeres. An uneventful day on the way back, some interesting scenery that 'Helene' found unintentionally for us. We must say here that we simply couldn't have done what we have, without Tim's Garmin. We have ventured into the huge cities, highways and byways of France and she has never let us down. Yesterday however, whilst she didn't let us down, we found ourselves in a tiny village, the only route out in the direction we were headed was "barre", so we had to rely on 'Helene' to find our way out, which she did but hours along a very narrow, windy but beautiful road down the Tarn Valley. We realised just how vulnerable we are as we simply wouldn't have been able to explain where we wanted to go in French. We were very glad to be travelling in our air-conditioned car, as it rose upwards of 33 degrees!

The last Roman ruin for this trip!

Happy to get here in the late afternoon and catch up with Al, Cheryl, Bob and Eugenie, and have a swim in the newly lined pool. Such a relief too, to have dinner prepared and not have to try to work out what's on the menu! We have spent today at a very large local market (what else) and just generally catching up. Other party guests are starting to arrive in Lascazeres, so I guess we will get busier and busier, not sure how much we will blog in the next few days.

Harvest time for their winter crops

Almost there!
