Back from holiday in France

We're now back from a week in the ol' Dordogne. We made it there despite Bryan taking a wrong turn at the beginning that could've ended us up in Lyon - the knobber.

It was very nice and relaxing although the weather could've been hotter. Despite my best efforts at sunbathing I have not yet achieved the mahogany tan I so desire.

It was still nice enough to go out and about or sit outside and read. Every night was spent feasting on good food and good wine. The old media drive came in very handy, since there was no English TV, even if half the films didn't work or were missing subtitles (in which case we could've just watched French TV).

All in all, a very relaxing break, which also got me out of the Amsterdam carnage (although I really wanted to go). From the photos it looked like the usual 'men stand around and drink loads' which doesn't come as a massive surprise. A very funny video of the Vet though. :)
