Market Day in Sarlat

Saturday is the big market day in Sarlat. I'll have to see it to believe it, because the Wednesday market was very big and very full of people.

















We spent most of the morning in the market, me snapping pictures like crazy. We explored myriad narrow, winding streets. This is a very old town and a very picturesque one. It has turrets and half-timbered houses and conical structures. A little of everything in one town.














We met up with our tour group tonight. They didn't arrive until around 6:15pm, and they were looking a tad road weary. We are a group of 25. One other couple from Portland and a handful from the west coast or the west in general. We got to visit with a number of them, and I think they will prove to be an interesting group. We're novices at this tour thing, so we'll have to see how we adapt.

Tomorrow, we're off to visit the prehistoric caves of Rouffignac and Lascaux.
