Greetings from France-Installment 2


We have been exploring ancient history - beyond what we "New Americans" could ever imagine. Medieval villages with most of the buildings still intact, ancient Roman ruins from the 3rd century AD and landscapes of magnificent Cypress trees, old stone bridges and waterways.  The food, the wine and the Saturday morning marketplace in Nerac - c'est magnifique!  See more at Tkatch in Southwest France

Greetings from France-Installment 1


Bonjour! We have been in the Southwest of France for 2 days and we have yet to leave the charming medieval town of Nerac, where we are staying in the house of our good friends, Barbara and Charlie.   The church in the background is our landmark - the house is right across the street.  What a view!  Here's a small glimpse of our walk around the town: Click on Wandering in Nerac .  Don't worry, it will take you only 30 seconds to watch.  Here's a free download of Quicktime for PC or Mac if you need it.
