I was delivered back into to town this morning, just in time to walk the streets, see the sights & ride the little tourist train. Many of the cities & towns that we have been in have a little train that drives you around the highlights of the inner city, giving a commentary too.
Perigueux was part of the 100 years war that Britain & France fought. Guess who won? There had been three food markets earlier in the day and there were a lot of people around. In the park area by the hotel there was a family festival. Music, activities like skate boarding, duelling and more. I decided to avoid the noise & shopped and rode the little train. Here's what I saw. The Romans were here a squillion years ago and left a few remains.

Hi Grandma (Bev)
ReplyDeleteMum and Dad love the photos and are pleased to hear you are having a great time.
I spent the afternoon helping Mum to make cup cakes in the new cup cake maker you got us. We have just delivered some to Edward with his birthday present. Edwards says hi and see you soon.
Enjoy the rest of your holiday. I wanted to know why you were going on such a long holiday and Mum told me it was cause you have lots of money. I hope I have lots of money to go on long holidays too.
Love you, miss you
