After an uneventful yet exciting flight, Jean-Louis and two of his friends met us at the airport/corrugated-iron shed and took us to the beautiful city of Bergerac where we picked up Pauline from the station, before driving back to Fumel. Mark, Georgie, Anna and Ying met us there after having driven through France from North to South, and we all went down to the boat club to look around, and were treated to a delicious Boeuf Bourguignon. This perfect example of Gallic hospitality set all our spirits high, even though we were all very tired. We finally made our way to the hostel and collapsed into bed, knowing we would have to be up for 8am the next day.
