Églises and Chateaux

We have had a busy week!  We’ve had meals with friends - Alice and Gerard came to our house for dinner on Tuesday.  We went to Pirrko and Nelson’s for apéros on Wednesday.  We took Deirdre to Auberge de Prieuré for lunch on Thursday in Moirax and we visited the Cluny Église Notre-Dame and the Abbey.  

After lunch, we stopped in Layrac, to visit Église Saint-Martin, another Cluny church.  It has Roman mosaics on the floor and frescoed walls.  

On Friday, we had lunch in Pouy Roquelaure with our friends Lesley and Andy.  Lesley is an amazing chef and we had an Asian menu with multiple courses, each delicious!  

On Saturday afternoon, we visited Chateau de Magnas, built in the 16th century by the Galard family, that also built the Chateau du Terraube.  We enjoyed the antique cars on site for the day.
