Saturday - Chateauroux


Pic: Martel and the roof over the main square with the excellento market

Saturday - rolling North! Martel is great but cold. Stopped at a market to get saucisse and a bit of cheese to eat in the car en route. The lady at the tourist office advises us to visit some horse stud of a rich personnage, but we want to make some distance.





Pic: Ollie in Martel



























Old Martel is in good condition, well worth a stop.












Pic left: St Junien has some great old stone architecture.


Saint Junien I think this place is famous for gloves, but we couldn't find any. Also, there was a sign for a master Emaileur, whatever that is. Couldn't find that either. The 12th century church is interesting. We left my backpack with the passports in a cafe, but the owner races out with it when he sees us passing by again.
