Week 26 2016

Hello!

I love pottery and ceramics, so it was lovely to be walking round Castelmoron d’Albret in the sunshine at the weekend admiring all the lovely stands.

It’s a beautiful village with a very pretty little tea shop at the top of the village behind the pottery shop.  Even if there’s no pottery market, it’s worth a visit to wander through the little lanes.

Let’s hope the summer has arrived at last.  Whatever you do this week in the Gironde and Dordogne regions, have a great time.

Best wishes,

Helen
