Feasting in France

The Gite de Poudally really has been fantastic. The dinner tonight was outstanding. We started out with a zucchini soup with a fresh farm egg and croutons, then roasted guinea fowl with a creamy peppercorn sauce and a mixed vegetable-buckwheat casserole and for dessert a berry-banana frappe with a dark chocolate- cornflake confection. All so good and a little too filling. Good thing we are walking again tomorrow!

I'm in a delightful double room with private bath. Living it up tonight! Yet the room, dinner and breakfast all cost 40 euros total. Such a deal!
