Au revoir Beaumont!
Today is our last day in Beaumont and tomorrow we leave for Orléans.
We spent the first part of today in Monpazier, another Bastide town. Such history abounds! Then we had the pleasure of visiting Betrand and Elizabeth who live in the oldest house in the village. They gave us a tour of their magnificent abode filled with wondrous treasures. They were a most delightful and hospitable couple. We were accompanied by Sue 2.0 and her little dog. Sue, Bertrand and Elizabeth have been close friends for many years. We were very privileged and honoured to be permitted to see Bertrand's and Elizabeth's home.
We ended the day with yet another magnificent meal prepared by Steve. We should also mention the beautiful table setting arranged by Sue 1.0 who has an exquisite eye for detail. We will upload photographs shortly.
We will miss our after dinner drinks in the garden and interesting conversations. Although we have only been here for one week it will be hard to leave our new found friends tomorrow. However, we will keep in touch and already Catherine is planning a return visit next year.
It is late now and we have an early start so I shall finish this post now.
Bon nuit!
