After traipsing around Cahors yesterday we decided to have a quiet day just relaxing and reading. The weather is still good at this time and coldish at night, around 10-14 degrees but then getting up to 28-31 degrees during the day.
The site has become a lot busier in the last seven to ten days as no doubt the children are off school and the Dutch, Belgian, French and English start heading for the sun. There are quite a few children now on site and they head straight for the swimming pool each afternoon and their shrill screams can be heard up the valley. We prefer it quieter than it is now but this is still a quiet site.
There are approximately 7 English site support staff working at the various functions. They work for about one and half hours per day then get their camp site fees free. Not a bad deal really however we like the easier life.
In the evening there was a wine tasting, also an English couple who make occasion cards on site together with the Pizza man. His Pizzas don’t look nearly as good or as well made as the lady who makes them on Sunday nights. The wine was reasonable, we tried a Rose -not good, a rouge better and finally their best rouge which we liked and bought two bottles because he was a nice guy. The wine may have been cheaper in the supermarket but it was an interesting way of spending an hour.
We both fancy a challenging walk tomorrow; let’s hope the weather stays fine.
