Last day of Sojourn in the South

The ice block lights adorning one of our purchases from Emmaus (large warehouse of recycled stuff) yesterday along with the lighted cactus!

Today started with yours truly feeling a little ordinary, not being able to shake the summer cold, and an inbox full of emails! So I attacked the work with a vengence as the day promised to be a fine sunny 30 degrees Celsius! Nothing a shower and a Panadol couldn’t dull as Kev and I had planned a lunch out at Roland’s (work) hotel – The Brit!

Sitting on the terrace, with a view over the pool and shade above, we enjoyed our lunch, while poor Roland slaved away serving a quite busy crowd for a Thursday, I enjoyed a wild mushroom omlette and a salad, feeling very full for a midday meal, no dinner needed.

Looking back up at the castle landmark of Fumel…..

And down towards the Lot River, a very pleasant relaxing last day….getting read to hit the travel traps tomorrow – first train at 8am from the nearby town. The afternoon spent packing and repacking as I am taking an extra suitcase (as already paid for) with Kevin and Rols belongings that need transporting back to Malta! The day will be interesting rolling two bags and a small backpack on and off trains and buses until I can rid myself of one on the flight checkin from Bordeaux!

A quiet evening, a cool beer and an early night!
