A really nice dinner last night in Miradoux with myself and another guest being the only patrons at the local restaurant, L’Etape. chicken confit, ratatouille and frites all well prepared, hit the spot! Off this morning on a short but scenic day to Lectoure. Another hill town with a long climb in to town at the end. Excited to arrive at 1:00pm in time for lunch and a big enough place to have lots of restraints, all unwilling to seat anyone at 1:00pm. Fortunately a cafe had a salad, but another one of those really annoying paradoxes in France: you can see everyone else eating good food, you are not allowed to have any. Of course my Gite had a sign that it wouldn’t open till 2:30pm, and a call to the owner elicited not a whit of helpfulness of sympathy, she could have easily given me the door code to get in and leave my bag. 2:30pm came and no sign of her. Lucky for me a baggage delivery guy drove up and had the door code, come to find out she was already inside….Only in France! Anyway, booked a massage at the local hot spring, we will see how that goes, was forced to buy a speedo, as French people contract diseases from bathing suits unlike in the rest of the known universe. When in Rome……. All right, will go and sit in the hot springs before scheduled massage and report back later.
