Friday - head out to St Cirq Lapopie


Saint Cirq Lapopie


Friday - head out to St Cirq Lapopie via Calvignac - spectacular and high on a hill overlooking the river. V cold, nothing open, wandered around, then hiked back to the car as its time for lunch.

Cahors, the birthplace of Gambetta













Cahors - seems identical to Nimes with its circular road around the town centre. Had an Andouillette again, nice but slightly wrong somehow due to mushy zuchini and creamy odd sauce. Lots of medieval homes overhanging the road. Tried on some hats but no success.






Sensational bridge over the river in perfect condition with medieval defenses, murder slots, gates. Rolled home for some warmth and cartoons in our awesome hotel room.


This is the birthplace of Gambetta. The boys school in Cagnes sur Mer is named after him, so we should look him up in Google one time.
