We spent a day and a night in a little town called Beynac. The scenery was breathtaking, every which way you looked you could see a castle perched on a hilltop. The town was the location for a few movies, including Chocolat and Ever After. Everyone was very friendly (unlike Paris but I'll get to that later) and the weather was lovely. I actually arrived in France with only a carry on and had brought a wool coat and knee high boots. I was sweatin' it a little.
After our first shower in over 30 hours we hit the town for a stroll and then dinner...
The narrow streets are the reason why you can only have a mini car here.
Castle...
View of the valley...
Beynac from the road below the bluff...
Cute street by our hotel...
Beautiful wall with a lovely red street lamp...
Fountain on the street, I thought my kids would think this was cool, they would name it the Aslan fountain or something because the water is coming out of a lion's mouth...

Charming, delightful, darling. I watched "French Kiss" a week ago and these pictured reminded me of the charming little town they go to outside of Paris.
Beautiful! Thanks for sharing.
