Les vacances Francais   
Not much food.  In fact only one food pic, and that brochette de
taureau being my revenge on the taureau for not appearing in the
manifestations taurines at Aigues-Mortes.  There were plenty of
Camargue horses though.

So, several hundred inadequately captioned photos from Normandy;
Fontevraud; Poitiers; Limoges; Périgueux; Cahors; Albi; Calmeilles;
Nîmes, Aigues-Mortes; Arles; Avignon; Saint-Jean-d'Aulps; Le Biot;
Guédelon and Sens. at:

Oh, lots of cathedrals.

nowasays.

Of course not, they were rather muddy.  But I did look at the horse
meat section in the supermarket, noted how much smaller it seemed to
be, and regretted not having a kitchen available at the time.  It's
also quite a while since I've seen horse on a restaurant menu.
