2005, Day Six, Limeuil.

Day six 29^th June

We left on the D50 heading for the A20 via the D59/D13 and then N134 from Châtillon-sur-Indre.  We did stop at Aire de Briance-Ligoure on the A20 for a quick snack and drink before continuing to exit 51 the E70 and then D704 to D703 to D31and finally Limeuil.

Limeuil Camping le Port de Limeuil le Port de Limeuil, 24480 Alles/Dordogne Web Site

The site is on the banks of the river Dordogne, at the confluence with the river Vezere, just over the bridges from the village of Limeuil.  Again we get a pitch over looking the river, this time though with a large empty field between us and the river.  Quiet site well out of the way, facilities are very good and pool area is empty most of the day.  Small shop, bar and restaurant/takeaway, all of which are very good and very reasonable.

First thing I get the scooter of the rack and get the porch awning up, its best to do it this way as if you do it the other way round, the van suspension rising when the scooter comes off, rips out the pegs or just rips the awning. 

All those around us are very friendly, Dutch either side of us, one couple in a caravan, the other couple in a very small tent and an English couple opposite us in a chalet.  That night we have a couple of drinks over at the bar and get talking to the English couple from the chalet opposite our van.   Then later a few more drinks outside the English couple's chalet, this is terrible of me but I can never remember the names of the people we meet (Dot would probably remember but she thinks I am mad recording everything we do).
