Dordogne to Saint-Emilion, France








market day in Issigeac
Sunday April 24
Celebrating Alex's 10th birthday with the tart we were too tired to eat the night before.  We left the tree house and headed back towards Bordeaux and Saint-Emilion for two nights.  We had visited Saint-Emilion five years ago and really enjoyed it and decided to go back.  We were lucky to have the sun appear it's been a cooler and more rainy April than usual in France - some arctic air mass was stuck over Europe.  We stopped in another wonderful small town Issigeac based on the fact that the Sunday market was going to be there.  Again, a quaint wonderful town.  We had lunch at a lovely restaurant before we headed to some Karting for Alex's birthday.

Then on to Saint-Emilion, checking into our hotel in town, a small walk around and dinner at a really good Vietnamese restaurant.

A nice sunny day, the petit tourist train through the vineyards, lunch outside in Saint-Emilion.  Driving back to Paris on Tuesday since the trains were on strike.
