Week 24 2013



Hello,

What a week of weather, possibly the sunniest day, the hottest day, the wettest day and the cloudiest day all in one week!

We braved the showers and wrapped up warm and headed out to one of our first brocantes of the year at Civrac.  From the clouds and the clothes in the photos you would never think we are almost midsummer’s day!

Whatever you do this week in the Gironde and Dordogne region, have a good time.



Best wishes,

Helen
