Dolmens and Wine

While I don't have anything particularly interesting to write today, I do have a few nice pics to post. Shown here is the Dolmen of Kerbourg, one of the best-preserved and most interesting dolmen sites on the Guérande peninsula. We didn't even know it existed until we happened over it in a guidebook, and found it was only five minutes' drive from here. Unlike the bigger, more commercialized sites, this is just standing freely out in a field, and one can crawl all over it, touch it, and go inside of it if one doesn't mind a bit of crawling.





Emily wanders around in the large end cave of the interior, probably trodding all over the six thousand year old remains of some ancient Asterix.

The only other bit of news today is the repeat of the shocking international wine debacle of 1976. I suppose I should probably stay out of the wine shop for a few days lest an irate French wine seller start screeching at me about the subject. It could be worse - Imagine the horror if they'd been beaten by some of the emerging new North Carolina wines!
