Starting the trip

My trip started in Lavour where we checked into our bed and breakfast called Bosc Lebat, where we relaxed for a few days before starting our roadtrip.

The entire area was so beautiful and relaxing, I could have stayed there forever. The pool was relaxing and tranquil and the whole area is green and lush. We even had an orchard on the Bed and Breakfast grounds.


We finally left Lavour and started driving through French countryside. Along the way, we stopped to admire some vineyards in the area. We stopped in one of the larger areas called Gaillac and stopped to admire some of the old buildings and there were also many vineyards in the area to make the place even more beautiful. Here is one of the old buildings we stopped to admire and take photos of.



While admiring this city we stopped at a restaurant called "Les Ailes" and thoroughly enjoyed our meal there. The atmosphere was eclectic, but the food was good home cooked French cuisine. This restaurant, we found out, has become a local favorite and was featured in an community site as to where to eat.

After filling ourselves we made our way to the Bed and Breakfast in Najac that we stayed in for a few days before resuming our trip. Here is a picture we took of our beautiful room that was waiting for us after our drive.
