Little trip to France - Chasseneuil-sur-Bonnieure

 
 

View Larger Map

After my fabulous sleep in my
wonderful bedroom with
Shutters (they are amazing)
and breakfast, we set off
for
 
 
to see their market.
 
This one I believe was their Monthly
Live Animal market and they have two
smaller ones a week.
 
Of course it took over the whole town but was not just
animals, it has allsorts ..
 
 
 
So French !!
 
 
Cannot resist an Oyster or two!!
 

 
Some people like these , obviously a demand for them :-)
We had one left in our garden by previous owner.





 
Every man will have one of these in his pocket ! I know my hubby has one.
 
(maybe I should include women too, who knows) 







Beautiful mural on the end of the wall of a Florists.



 
Special carvings seen around the area ,  designed by a team of wood carvers
who come over from Canada.  The carvers work with chain saws, chisels and at the end
they sand everything smooth by hand.

 I have tried to find more information
and each time I google I come across this blog ..  yep it is Diane's.
 
Diane has a more in depth post about the carvings.  I know she won't mind
me linking and sharing.
 


 
And of course
 
The Shutters. You will see these a lot in my posts.

 
 
Just a little post today .. more to come.
Hope you enjoy .
