re-visiting Touraine as a 'tourist'.

This was the view recently as we took tea with a friend revisiting her old stomping ground but having sold her property here she was visiting as a 'tourist' and enjoying being free of the responsibilities of ownership - and what a lovely setting it was for relaxing! A splendid view of the chateau at Le Grand-Pressigny.

A February Sunday stroll in Le Grand-Pressigny

Pauline and I wrapped up well and went for a walk around Le Grand-Pressigny yesterday. We both have been struggling with heavy colds since returning from Scotland and less active than usual, so this was a good opportunity to get back to doing some exercise. 

It was a good walk and made more enjoyable as we met friends with the same idea and joined them for a walk up behind the chateau.
