A viewing tower and some big stones

We drove to Toulx Sainte Croix today where there is a viewing tower from which you can see 7 French Départements.  It was a but murky so I'm not sure we could but the views were good nonetheless.  We also walked quite a way to see an ancient lavoir (a public place set aside for the washing of clothes) that supposed to be being restored.  It looked more like a pile of mud to me!

After that we went and found some coffee at a café in trois fonds and then drive on to see Les Pierres de Jaunatre. Some pretty impressive natural stones in a beautiful setting.  We drove on to Betete after visiting the stones but failed to find the Abbey there.  We popped into the Boussac Carrefour on the way back to the campsite for a few bits and then I had another swim at the campsite.  We had dinner at the pizzeria in Boussac, which wasn't bad at all - if a little over-cheesed!
