Day 23 Lectoure

After going to sleep with the rain pelting down it was nice to wake to only clouds. A cooler day today with glimpses of sun hopefully.
Last breakfast in France so we went to the boulangerie for petit dejeuner...juice, coffee, croissant and baguette with jam and butter all enjoyed whilst sitting outside on the footpath....just like at Pierre's!! With puffer jackets off, the sun out and hats on we headed down the main street looking into shops that were open for the first time since we had been here. There were many antique shops, a funeral parlour, hairdressers, another hotel and restaurant as well as the thermal spa. 'La Village', the old hospital was next stop. As you entered all you could see was bric a brac....everywhere. From lawn mowers to linen to a room full of old keys, lots of furniture.....wondering how much actually gets sold....
Lunch was at the other end of town overlooking the valley at La Bastion. A glass of Rosé, salade chevre chaud and warm fruit crumble whilst enjoying what might be our last blue sky and sun for a while!! UK tomorrow and meant to be the coldest and wettest summer so far!!
Snoozy afternoon and evening, packing, tidying up and finishing all the food in the fridge.Read more
