More lock houses...
The light and green foliage amazed me with joy.
More ancient tobacco drying sheds...
another eclusier..
We stopped for refreshments at Mas d'Agenais
where water flowed into the Lavoir...it was refreshingly cool in the shade compared to the heat we had cycled in...
Who's this?
We went inside the church called Collegiale Saint-Vincent.
where there is a REMBRANDT!!! 1631 Christ on the Cross
on we cycled!
This was our reward on the morning we departed...the small bakery was in the same village where we had arrived and so it was fitting to say GOODBYE...
and this a not very good photo of an amazing lunch..
chicken kebabs with sundried tomatoes, carrots braised in stock, potato souffles...7e at le Commerce in Castelmoron.
The market hall was made of metal and iron...quite unusual...memory fading a bit here!!!
There was beautifully restored architecture near the river...
We traveled the return journey without air con in the car on the hottest day of the year...
we stopped with this view for the last of the choc ice and camp tea.
I was bushed and went to sleep for an hour!
THANK YOU world for letting me be here when I'd heard various comments which had made me decide that I would not make the effort! I am so glad opportunity opened a door and I hope that one day I will return now that I know I could cycle alone the two canals over a period of a few weeks enjoying the views and villages on the way.
