NEUNG - 10-OCT

 

Since our host is the games keeper for a local private reserve he spends a lot of time in the forest overseeing the animals. A sideline is finding edible mushrooms which he was kind enough to share. We did clean and cook some but decided they were ok to eat but too mushy. It was the thought that counted. 

Kim never misses a scenic spot along the way while I keep my eyes focused on the pavement under my front wheel. 

Yet another grand estate tucked behind the hedges. There are more of these everywhere to even count. 

A real sculpture of an impressive stag but not as much fun as the real thing. 



The local architecture here is different from our other locations. Brightly colored doors and windows surround the intricate stone facade. 

This classic Citroen was touring the area. We passed it on several rides but not sure of its mission. 

It was stopped along our favorite road. There was a film crew taking videos of two women who exited the vehicle and strolled along to the adjacent pond. Since we did not want to disrupt their shoot we took a few photos and continued on our way. Would be fun if it showed up in one of the French series we like to watch.

Nice looking eclair which was more memorable than the town where we ate it.
