Day 2: Around Trémolat, including Les Eyzies, Le Buque, and LimeuilWe started this day in Les Eyzies, home to prehistoric cave paintings. The town is built right into a cliff, or perhaps more accurately partially caved out of a cliff. In the early afternoon we rode past the pretty town of Le Buque, right next to the river and home to a lovely windmill. At the end of the afternoon, about 3 minutes after the downpour started, we arrived in Limeuil, a simply gorgeous little town. Fortunately the rain cleared and we were able to wander around a little before becoming increasingly cold and returning to Trémolat, our home base for the first two days. Note the attack sheep, guardians of the village for generations. |
