A little shopping and not much else

Another nice morning and sitting outside in the sun for our morning breakfast whilst watching the workers in the field about half a mile away collecting vegetables for the local market or supermarket.
Although we paid via Booking.com this accommodation by credit card it would appear they don't take credit card normally just cash and/or bank transfer and so we needed to get some cash and also fill up the car with fuel for tomorrows journey up in to them there mountains. The ATM machine was in the centre of the small town which a certain part has a strong historical background. More detail as follows.

’Benefiting from an exceptional climate between the Alps and Provence, this small town located to the south-east of Gap (prefecture) combines the best conditions for agricultural production and air recreation. The territory of "Gap Tallard Durance" is dotted with orchards. A few hectares of vines still survive on Tallard and Châteauvieux and come to complete the wine offer on the Route des Fruits et des Vins which crosses Tallard. The famous Route Napoléon also makes a stop in the town. The castle, which dominates the valley of the Durance east side and the old town to the west, is classified as a historical monument and dates from the fourteenth and sixteenth centuries. But Tallard is also a paradise for sports and air recreation with exceptional areological conditions. It was the scene of major events such as the world parachuting championship in 2003. Its particular aerology allows all light aviation disciplines to mix with each other: plane, helicopter, parachuting, ULM, glider, hot-air balloon, para-motor… Others Sports activities are also possible with the cliff of Céüze, which attracts climbers of all nationalities’
We took a couple of photos around the old town and noticed that there were a number of drawings on the walls all around the town which were rather nice.

We returned to the chalet and Jennifer prepared the chicken for this evenings dinner and we sorted out our cases for the next week as we are not likely to need swimming costumes and more likely to need warmer clothing . We need to leave early tomorrow morning and so have cancelled the breakfast for tomorrow morning although its a nice way to start the morning it will take to long for tomorrow for us with an early departure. We plan to have another swim mid afternoon before it gets to cool, once the time reaches around 18.00 it starts to get much cooler.
I am completing the Blog early as we know what the rest of the day has in store for us and perhaps tomorrow there will be a lot more to write about and so it was great to get this done early
