I lived for a school year in Bergerac after graduation from college in 1972. I returned t my home here in Memphis, Tennessee in July, 1973, so enriched from the fabulous experience! I have not been back to Bergerac. I must begin to make plans to go back...my husband adores la belle et douce France. Thank you for the beautiful photos and the commentary ! Perhaps we shall meet one day !!
ReplyDeleteSalut frenchrunner, Thanks so much for the comment. We love living here. Our village is about a half-hour from Bergerac, and we go there to shop at the big stores (or to have Indian food) every so often. These stores are probably what you would notice as one of the biggest changes since you lived here. Their inevitable rise has caused the demise of many small village businesses. What a shame. Bergerac itself is still lovely, though. When you come for a visit ... and you must! ... please let me know.
