Day 174, 3 December 2014, L'ancien Presbytere, B&B in Voulons, just outside of Le Dorat. What a treat! Somewhat like travelling a few kilometres and arriving in a parallel universe. Had a final clean up and last minute pack this morning then headed into Magnac-Laval for a farewell coffee with the lovely folks I've met here. Then off! Drive to Le Dorat (and out again). We ended up on a sealed but slim "C" road. I've more or less got the road system sorted out. "A" roads (actually "a road"), "B" roads ("be likely to get you there in one piece), "C" roads ("can't see it working but give it a go") - Nah... kidding. Arrived in the village of Voulons and found the B&B by following the pink signs and our noses. Now back to the parallel universe - it was WARM! (Phenomenal new invention called central heating and big heavy drapes and lovely beams, plaster and stones everywhere - possibly dating from the 15th century - with a phenomenal amount of work being done by the English owners in the last decade). Pictured today is my stunning room with it's own woodburner (as well as central heating... I know... magic). As those who know me at all know well... part of my DNA is likely listed as "lobster" - so I immediately ran the bath as hot as hot could be and jumped in the pot. Bliss. The happy sounds were just the air escaping from my shell.
