Did you get into a Troglodytic houses?
Your pictures were wonderful - gave me a sense of serenity and time. But am fascinated by those cliff houses...never knew there were any in France.

For a second, I thought it was David Foster the singer/composer but it's a different talented Dave here - a good photographer! Really like the countryside pics & Chateaus. Hope to go back there in the future to see more of France.
