We took the day off, as a friend of LSS is staying with us for a week. We decided to visit La Borne (a village about 50 km away) as we had been told there were a lot of artisanal potteries there. As it happened, there was also a massive car boot sale in the village. We didn’t see anything we needed though.

Afterwards we went to Sancerre and walked around the old town (very picturesque). On the way back we stopped at the fountain at St. Montaine to have a drink of the water, which apparently has miraculous healing properties. I didn’t feel any different, but then again I wasn’t sick. There is also a small farm nearby which sells goats cheese, so we stopped there to purchase some (and of course to see the goats!)

All in all it was a very enjoyable day.
