Wedding in the Dordogne

---

Travelled from Paris to Limoges where we hired a Renault for a week. Graeme found the left hand side drive a bit of a challenge, but coped admirably - returned the car without any scratches, but was a bit dented himself.

The 5 day wedding extravaganza was great, but exhausting for all, as we fitted so much in to the time, and met so many new and lovely people. The Poms "say" they won the cricket, but there is some doubt about the scoring. After quite a few drinks most admitted defeat.

The wedding was most colourful, with all the ladies being fitted with fascinators from the costumery, the men being presented with colourful buttoniers, and the groom dressed in purple satin! Melanie looked absolutely lovely in a sort of grecian style gown of cream. Lyn also looked beautiful, and Pete scrubbed up pretty well too 😉

We loved the little town of Segur le Chateau where Melanie has a little house. The town is medieval and parts of it are over 1200 years old, and the castle dating back to the 9th century.

We are now back in Paris (almost feels like home) - and we go to see Giverny and Monet's garden tomorrow. Then Head to London on Friday via the Chunnel.
