2024 Day 37 La Roque-Gageac
It’s a gloriously sunny day as we drive down the cliffs into the the Dordogne Valley. Spring has finally turned a corner – the sky is an endless blue. It’s our third time in this […]
2024 Day 36 Domme

It’s time to farewell the lovely Lyon and resume our lavender quest. Our journey south takes us along the Rhone river and the vineyards of the Cote de Rhone, Provence bound. It’s clear this is […]
