The weather has been getting progressively better, but we have had mist in the mornings with the sun breaking through at about 11. Today we awoke to clear skies.

The day started with a visit to Grottes de Lacave where a trip on an underground electric train led to a kilometre long cave system, the highlight of which were several underground lakes which gave immaculate reflections of the stalactites.

We then delved into the rural delights of the upper Dordogne valley including:
A lazy Sunday lunch at a delightful village, Creysse
A visit to the interesting medieval town of Martel
Admiring the river from several view points
Our first night of wild camping on the carpark of another charming village perched above the river, Carennac.
