Beautiful Beynac!

This is the start of our relaxation.  We gave the kids cereals which is a proper novelty compared to last year when the fridge didn’t work!!  They loved it – so sweet!!  
It’s market day, so we walked along the river to the beautiful medieval village; it was really bustling selling local produce of the Perigord which is frois gras and nut infused delicacies so we decided to give them a miss!!  We bought goggles for the kids as I’d forgotten them and then we walked up into the medieval town a bit (it’s very steep), including a very narrow street that a crazy Italian had tried to drive up!!  

There’s a lovely little grocery shop, a boulangerie and a boucherie opposite the campsite so we stocked up on our essentials which are tomatoes, cucumber and cheese!! We also made the decision to allow Seren to have the bread from the baker – it was lovely and she was fine but we watched her like a hawk the whole time she was eating.  Chris’ sandals have rubbed his feet so we also bought him flipflops which is breaking his rule about bits between his toes and also they have union jacks on so he hates them even more!!! Hahaha!!! Beggars can’t be choosers and his white shower sandals are so hard they are killing him!!! 

We swam again after lunch and the weather was much better, Morgan goes blue when she is cold though which is a bit scary!!  Seren is the one who really loves the water and has improved a lot – they are both much more confident underwater.  We had a lovely evening watching the girls playing and singing, and Evan throw balls and making loom bands, we have such well behaved kids!! 


Since we arrived in France my phone hasn’t been working despite 3 assuring me that the phone was enabled and that I would have the same usage package in France as I do in the UK….so I rang them and ended up going round and round in circles being put thorough to various people until about 30 minutes later it was sorted - free unlimited data - Chris is over the moon!
