Back on the road passing ploughed fields...
A very large wood pile - maybe expecting an even colder winter next year!....
Driving through Varaignes - Each November they hold a turkey fair in the town, where after a great meal, plus wine, the locals get up on a stage to compete in the traditional 'who can make the best turkey noise'. It must be an hilarious event!
also driving through Varaignes...
and driving out the other side.
A very brave man in front, driving an MG with the roof down!!! Brrrrr.
A mid morning stop in Saint-Estèphe for a morning coffee.
Back on the road; passing stables...
Hoping that we do not meet a car coming the other way...
A natural tunnel...
Crossing a river - I do not know which one it was...
The church at Bussiere-Badil; Church Notre-Dame de la Nativité.
Twenty two of us enjoying lunch at Roussines.
Back home, the first cowslips of the year are appearing by the roadside.
