We drove for about five hours on Monday to one of our favorite spots in the world……..Sarlat, France.  It is in the heart of what is known as the Perigord or Dordogne Valley.  It is famous for the many caves in the area which have prehistoric drawings on the walls and ceilings.  The most famous is Lascaux but there are many in the area.  We have been to one of the caves, on our own, in 2001 but, we want to see more.  We hired an English speaking guide to take us to two caves and a museum on Friday.  We can’t wait.

Today was market day in Sarlat and it is one of the most popular markets in the region.  We got an early start and it was worth it.  Did I mention that Sarlat is the Foie Gras capital of the world?????  I LOVE the stuff.  I bought some to take with us and, of course, we had it to start our lovely lunch with some of best I have ever tasted.

There is much to do and much to see.  Here a few photos.
