Just finished a 15km canoe with Sal down the dordogne river amongst all of these really old chateau - awesome. This area of France is amazing and very laid back. There are many old chateaus around here as this area has been the seen of many battles between the english and french. Yesterday we visited one of them and it was great as they had all of the orginal furnture in it so it was very easy to imagine; Yesterday we also visited Lascaux which is an underground cave which has huge paintings of bulls, bison and horses dating from around 17,000 years ago - thats before the ancient greeks and romans. We also visited Domme which is a neat little town on a cliff - see the video for the view. Unfortunately we got a flat tyre and the french folk found this very amusing as they were constqntly walking past and laughing and making comments. The B&B we are staying at is the kind of place that has so many rules (including how much toilet paper you can use) that you just wanna brek them. On the upside is that the owner is a fantastic chef and he cooks us 5 course dinners every night.
