Hi again

I have spent the last week and a half in the very south of France, because it was the HOLIDAYS :)

Well we packed clothes, enough for a week or so and drove for about 3 hours, then stopped for a bite to eat then another 4 hours of driving. While driving for those seven hours we drove over the Viaduc de Milleau
Here is a pic.
It is definitely BIG. This photo is taken from the south side

We arrived sometime around 9 ish at an American friends in Brissac, this is the place where we slept throughout the week and a bit. We had dinner with Charlie (the American) and went too bed there because we had been since the early hours of the morning.
About this town called Brissac, it is a very small town with only a bakery and a butcher but it had a Castle called Chateau de Brissac ( Castle of Brissac)More big things, and why would such a small town need a castle? maybe it is there for protection for when the English invade (its a joke, your supposed to laugh)
Anyway through out this week we visited a bunch friends, mainly my cousins friends but a few were my uncles friends.
My Aunt and Uncle own a large house just around here ( I mentioned this in another post ) but we could not stay there because it was being rented out but we did visit it they have ALOT of land there, and for my family to get an idea of how big it is, take the 1st paddock and multiply it by 3 or 4. Occupying some of this land was a vineyard which was tended to by my uncle while we where there.
On one of the days where we didn't visit friends we ( meaning my cousin and I ) went kayaking in two person kayaks with about 20 other people, fun but wet very wet, in fact i could say incredibly soakingly completely WET.
While way we ate food, amazing isn't itI take credit for the above dishes except the cucumber circle thingy that was Seraphine (my cousin)
I also ate some artichoke hearts, some french celery salad thing and various other things which I don't know how to spell or pronounce.

We went for a walk through a valley and saw a wild snake flick into the bushes, and behind the chateau I saw two snakes brown and greyI drank a little bit of Chateau Margaux (expensive wine)
