Lac Caveyere near Carcassonne

A fantastic new discovery for us. Thank you to our friend Rosie for pointing us in the right direction. Wish we had known about it when Mike's daughter and grandchildren visited us from Australia last year...another time we hope!

A small, sandy, safe beach for children to play and adults to relax.

A wonderful walk around the lake.

A place to cool off.

Plenty of space.

Something for the girls to watch :-))

Poppies in Northumberland

A beautiful drive up to Allendale in Northumberland passing a glorious field that would have been worthy of a Monet painting! C'est trés joli.
