Day 14

Day 14

 

Today we were off to the east and to try to follow both the route de frommage and the route de cidre….which is the route of cheese and the route of cidar.  We followed a website article which named the routes and towns one would pass through.  It was not so much like a wine tour but to just see the country and towns where a lot of the raw materials, like milk and etc.

The towns are SMALLLL AND OOOLLLDDD.  But very beautiful in their simplicity.  We did not get too far after traveling through several villages.  But we did find at one village factory and store and bought a couple types of cheese, camonbert a famous type only found here in this area.  But we bought a couple other cheeses to accompany the camonbert. 

Once done, we decided to go the cider route and followed the road signs through the area.  This was the real treasure.  We came upon one town which on its name sign it was “ONE OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL TOWNS IN FRANCE”!!!!  And it was!!!!!  We must have spent almost an hour just walking all round, in front and behind the buildings to take pictures.   It was absolutely gorgeous.  Others must have felt the same because there were a good number of French tourists stopping by too.

WE worked out way home driving through many towns and villages.  All, so old and beautiful buildings.  It was truly a photographers dream……just like the day before at Deaville and Honfleur.

Home, relax and we fixed our own dinner with pasta, sauce and some wonderful salads and wine!!!!

Bed early because we were all tired.
