Les Eyzies


This small village, which lies along the River Vezere, hosts the National Museum of PreHistoire.  This area contains many prehistoric artifacts and caves where some of the earliest examples of prehistoric art still exist.  We'll get to the caves in the next couple of days.  Meanwhile, wandered the museum, the upper reaches which are in the picture above.  Lots of bones (pre-human and otherwise), tools, weapons, etc.  Couldn't take any pics in the museum-- sorry.  But here's more of us enjoying the village.

But I wanted to include Betty with what she insists is the biggest bottle of Mouton Cadet she's ever seen:



and a very picturesque roadside pullout-- who sez the French language is rigid?
