The local sites were family friendly. In fact the whole are was family friendly, kids menus included delicious foods such as duck burgers, duck confit, great cheeses, salads with duck gizzards and of course always ice cream at the end.
Ada and Navi went spelunking at the Gouffre de Proumeyssac, it was spectacular. The whole thing started with a light and music show and then you walk through the cave to see the many formations up close and personal.
There were many castles in the region. Some well maintained and restored and others falling apart adding to their charm. Ada and Navi visted two castles in the area. Chateau de Beynac started with wonderful walk through a hillside town. The views were spectacular from the top.
Many a times the day would start with a walk in a small town/village. All with cobbled streets.
Other times, it would be a drive to a site and a stop in a town for lunch.
They also visited a beautiful manicured garden. A true French garden high up in a hill, Les Jardins Suspendus de Marqueyssac.
There were a few medieval towns they visited. Here they are in Sarlat, which was the biggest town in the area.
Again, playgrounds were found everywhere ranging in size from small to big.
The village the twins were staying in had a castle. Chateau de Castelnaud had a museum of weapons. Navi was amazed with all the swords, spears, bow & arrows on display.
Here's a giant cross bow the twins go to touch and discuss how and why it was used. Navi had wonderful ideas on the subject.
As pretty as the sites were the twins also enjoyed their time at home, there was a great yard for the to run around in after they were done swimming in the pool.
