Breakfast – time to leave Montferrand for Monpazier

Snail love, turns out that love was in the air that day

11th century church, I think this was my favorite, I’ll take it over Notre Dame any day

We spied this place for a mid-morning break, also to fill water bottles (walking tip: turns out cemeteries almost always have water)

Lunch break, our hosts from Lou Peyrol packed us sandwiches for the day, which we happily devoured sitting outside this castle wall.

Here’s what the locals were offering, this was the only restaurant in town.

Two deer running straight for us

The moment we realize we are 20 km away, it’s a hard moment, no one even cares about Chateaux Bannes in the background.

While we wait for our hotel to send a rescue car our way (miraculous), my daughter adopts several snails. (choosing snails over the chateaux, that’s my girl)

The feeling of sitting after walking for 9 hours.

Our hotel, Edward 1er

You can almost make out our muddy footprints

Monpazier and this surrounding area of France is very “English” in style…and sort of Disneyland-y.

Goodnight Monpazier.
