  • the weather has been dramatic, a chilly raining day ended with a brilliant sunset. visited the prehistoric cave Gargas near St. Bertrand de Comminges, some more than 200 hand paintings dated 27,000 years ago.
  • back to Myriam's farm kitchen, again a delicious meal, a hearty creamy tomato soup, sweet tender new potatoes, fresh green beans, fish with an incredibly strong flavored green sauce, mainly because the green ingredients are so fresh from the garden.
