Had a late breakfast including yogurt and petite galettes (like small crepes). Hit the trail and found a recommended path that saved us some kilos. Today took us out of the Cele valley which we had been traversing for several days. Eventually made it to Cahors, a pretty big city. Found the tourism office and garnered some info to help us with our stay and to help us plan the next days. Located some lunch at a food market and found another great patisserie for some fantastic treats. After a spot of coffee we ran into our friends from Canada who have been traveling the GR 65, what's considered the main route. From there we located our Gite and dropped off our backpacks. Found out that our package (electrical adapter) we were hoping would arrive did not make it. After a little searching in town, we were able to find a big international one at a camera shop. Went back to the tourism office and they made a reservation for us for tomorrow and then spent a little time touring the city. The cathedral here is interesting but probably not so much as some others we have seen. Followed a hidden garden tour and found a few neat sights. Finally decided to get ourselves and our laundry clean. Found a light dinner and are spending a bit of time relaxing. Rain is in the forecast for tomorrow so we are plotting our next steps carefully.
