Serene Soubès

Yesterday we drove from Bardos to Soubès - in fact Jack had been on a 4 hour round trip to Bilbao before that in order to get his host to an airport not affected by the latest strike.

The country on this side of France is quite different to the West Coast from whence we came, still mountainous, but stony rather than wooded. We're staying at a lovely house with our friends from Adelaide, have been shopping at a local market (well, some fifteen minutes' drive from the house) and gone for a walk into the village.
