| 33 years married and still smiling! |
 |
| Chuffed to have spotted this Bee Orchid |
 |
| Now that the weather has cleared, we can see the Pyrenees in the distance like a ghostly wall. |
Today we celebrate 33 years of married life together, in spite of all our joking that living together in a motorhome would end in a divorce!
The past five and a half years we've spent almost every moment in each other's company, much more than when we were working, and we both agree that it has brought us even closer together. 😊

| The views from Lectoure are amazing! |
 |
| Lectoure cathedral |
Yesterday we visited nearby Lectoure, an ancient village stronghold built like a fortress, which sits high on a hilltop. We happened to arrive on market day, so the village centre was buzzing with locals and tourists alike. The position of the village means it has the most fantastic views over the countryside; it was the perfect day for a visit.

This amazing building housed the biggest collection of antiques and some
of the weirdest odds-and-ends I have ever seen |
 |
| I think these fit into the latter category |
 |
| This room was dominated by the huge carved wooden Cobra |
We also bumped into some fellow South Africans who regularly visit their family in the village, and it was lovely to discuss familiar places as they have houses in both Cape Town and Stilbaai. Such a small world!
Bonus video; We can't figure out if Sid loves or hates this bush - he certainly mauls it a lot!
