Dirk managed to borrow a folding bicycle so we could both cycle together to Auvillar - a medieval town at the top of one of the nearby hills. I was glad to be cycling with Dirk as I don’t like cycling with other faster traffic and on the right hand side of the road as I still haven’t got used to it. Jimmy travelled in the basket and was very good about staying there unless told he could get out.
We left our bikes at the bottom of the hill and I got quite out of breath walking up the extremely steep path, but it was worth it. There are extensive views of the Garonne valley at the top as well as very arresting medieval buildings. We looked in the church which is a stopping place on the campostello pilgrimage
route and saw this beautiful window.
