heading south

Arrived at our gorgeous medieval 14th century home (in an amazing medieval village of Limeuil) late Saturday evening. Went straight to dinner at the local restuarant which, like everywhere in France, had great food. The village is set on a hill overlooking the Dordogne and Vezere Rivers. The village was established as a port as transportation of many goods was done by boat. The church bells wakes the whole village up at 8am but if that doesn't wake you the goats with their bells and bleating or the 100s of roostres will.
We spent Sunday morning at a market in nearby St Cyprien. Too much wonderful food hence spent hundreds of euros on fresh fruit, vegs, meats and cheeses (we are 3 and its for the week and we are doing lots of walking!). It was a beautiful day with a top of 27C.
Today, Monday started fine but the rain soon set in and will be here for a while so we've decided to have a relaxing day- just chillin'.
