What a day! I took 246 photos and am wiped out. How cool to walk around in a castle. The thing that always throws me off is scale. Some things I expect to be gigantic like the Coloseum and this Castle aren't as big as I thought, but much more maze like. The doorways and stairs are small and tight. Super interesting! Castle Beynac sits on top of a high rock cliff and the village climbs up to meet it. Twisty turning streets that are about five feet wide take you there. I want to post everything but I've only barely made a dent processing the images. Sketching was great and I actually drew a crowd a couple of times. Felt a little weird! More tomorrow. Only four more days til I start on my way home. Wow.

Great photos of the castle! It looks like you had good weather after all?
Ah! Looks fabulous. I'll look forward to seeing more of your photos of this. I've yet to go inside a real castle, and yes, I'm still mystified by scale and scope since I haven't experienced it spatially...
Lucky, lucky girl.
So it looks like the trip is going great! I love that you are just going with the flow of things and finding new ways of making the most of this trip. Now look who is the world traveler!! I can't wait til you get back and we can digest some of your adventures on our walks. Take care see you soon
