Mon 14 Jul- it's Bastille Day, but it's quiet here in the country. After breakfast, we went for a walk through the woods and along the roads, enjoying nature and the cool at 21 C, but sunny weather. We went to Saint Pardoux for lunch at the only cafe open for business, had a nice foie gras sandwich and cafe au lait, then walked the town in under 15 minutes (yes, it's a really small village)
Back at the chateau, we walked around the property, then Kiyomi worked while Stan read his book 'Eagle in the Sky' by Wilbur Smith.
We had dinner at the chateau; the food was plain but plentiful and good: 1/2 liter red house wine; real quiche with lettuce salad; chicken with rice and vegetables; 4 kinds of cheese; apple tart dessert. Not gourmet, but tasty and satisfying.
