18th June 2009 - Turenne

Turenne we found out is one of the official 52 most beautiful villages in France and it certainly lived up to its status. A wander through the village (not for the feint hearted) up to the monastery (undergoing restoration when we were there) rewards you with simply stunning views of the surrounding countryside.

After dinner we were invited to our new pals Jan and Mike to partake of some wine tasting. Sitting at the foot of the floodlit village created a wonderful ambience and added to the enjoyment of the evening. The wine definitely tasted good and after many tastes we went to bed totally relaxed and having learned more tips from our new friends.
