This is what was out my window when I opened the curtains. Good omen!
My hubby is going to think I'm nuts since last night I said I would stay in Sarlat for the rest of the trip then go straight to Paris then home. But I changed my mind. This morning I went down to the train station and bought tickets to Amboise. It north of here and on the way to Paris AND has a super cool castle. So one last adventure before I leave. I'll be there Monday night til Thursday morning.
But back to today. More walking of course, to the train station to buy tickets then back toward old town Sarlat. On my way I found a little antique shop and bought a little antigue book with "gold" clasps and a cool pen. From there I headed toward a super cute little toy store and got some more cool stuff for my still life paintings. An amazingly great sandwhich and small but delicious ice cream cone later, I am back at my hotel, first blogging then washing a couple of shirts. I miss my laundry room (never ever thought I would say that!)

Oh, Sarlat looks absolutely beautiful! And homesick or not, you are very experienced-world-traveller sounding what with hiring cabs and impromptu decisions to take off to new places--I hope your last few days are marvelous and SUNNY!
I love that avenue of twisting trees--not sure if it's from Sarlat or Beynac, but that's a fairy tale illustration in the making for sure. If you can ever find it after downloading all of these photos I would love a copy!
Michelle, you are truly AMAZING and I think you too will realize this (if you haven't already!) as you look back on all of this--the growth is not only in your marvelous sketchbooks!!
Enjoy, enjoy--so glad you get to come home from Paris as planned!
Hugs,
Jo
Yes, why not. What's keeping you in that stuffy old medieval town anyway? Enjoy Amboise and the castles. I think your getting a minor case of the travel bug.
Michelle - you're such an awesome inspiration. I love hearing you getting more and more confident and holding up so well as a solo-traveler! I am in awe of you!
