A dozen dozy days in the Dordogne have temporarily (?) rendered me incapable of stringing together anything more than that pathetic attempt at alliteration. So instead of my usual penetrating prose, here is a mosaic of photos to conjure up those walnut trees, a bit of architectural detail, the assisted departure of our temperamental car, and an absolutely idyllic pizzeria that we stumbled upon in a miniscule village called Gabillou, a mysterious cat and a couple of potagers (vegetable gardens).

I enjoy your photos a lot, Lesley. You have an eye for detail and a feeling for creating ambience. Thanks for sharing.
I love the photos. They have that fecund, hazy, golden atmosphere that beckoned us away from the grey skies over the channel.
Lesley,
So many beautiful photographs and unusual observations. Fascinating!
I am touring around other expat websites looking at how my fellow "foreigners living abroad" are faring...and trying to find others who like to write about being in a different land as much as I do.
I would like to invite you to visit my website, www.blueVicar.com..."for people who like to write and read stories about living abroad. Readers can live Vicar-iously anywhere in the world, while writers learn to see more, write better, and live more fully."
I am an American living in Antibes...seems a long way from the Dordogne. Life here is now a hub-bub of tourists and vacationers...sand and flipflops...sunburns and rosé. Ahhh---the Riviera!
Meilleurs vœux!
Anne
