We awoke to the pouring rain and decided to wait it out and it stopped at about lunchtime. In the meantime we had a light breakfast of French toast and jam with a cuppa in the hotel room and then at about 1.30 pm when the rain had stopped we headed back down town in the light rain to find the little bistro that we had visited the previous day and the staff remembered my food challenges and again made sure everything was ok.
For lunch we both had a croque madame, which is a croque monsieur with egg on top??? and it came with fries and salad and most filling. We left the restaurant whilst the rain held off and did some minor shopping in a Carrefour City shop of milk and a couple of cheeky chocolate biscuits.
Noel spent some more time in the afternoon reviewing our travel plans and spending quite some time on the internet looking for suitable hotels which match our proposed route back to St Malo. So we have booked a five night stay in Carjac an old ton in the Lot Valley with the promise of no rain and but nice and warm and then three nights in Angouleme and nice town on a river where we have booked an aparthotel. and then we still have two nights to fill but will do that in a weeks time . And finally a night in a Hotel in St Malo so as to be in ample time for our early ferry back to Portsmouth.
Tomorrow we leave this Hotel and head off to see a friend who lives in a place Puylaroc which is not to far from Cahor/etc.
Then spent the rest of the evening watching TV.
