Au revoir to the Dordogne

Today is a sad day because we are packing up our things, and tomorrow we will be leaving l'Abyme.
We have had a very happy three and a half months here. We've really got to know a beautiful part of France, and we've been able to share it with lots of our friends who have come out to visit us.

We never did get to see the barn owls that were nesting in the roof space, they made enough noise, they were definitely there! Nor did we get to watch the baby kestrels fly for the first time. Their nest was in the end of the house, but we know they were well fed. We witnessed mice, voles, slow worms and all sorts being taken in to them by their parents. Maybe that's where the tree frogs ended up, as they have mysteriously disappeared!




So, tomorrow we will say good bye, ( but only until the next time, because we will be back! ), and we start the next part of our adventure. We will be heading east towards Lyon, Turin and on to Ancona in northern Italy where we will board a ferry to Patras in Greece, and then over to Kefalonia which will be home for the next six weeks. Looking forward to a lovely greek summer, before the tourists arrive!
                                                   
                                                          à  bientôt!
