Today March 13, we have started visiting the villages in the region ...... we have begun Saint Antonin Noble-Val .... located at 47km from Montauban known in the region, as a beautiful medieval village.
environment where it is wonderful, between small mountains and gorges in the valley of the river Aveyron.
The typical medieval town, get lost among its streets is a delusion to the view and surprises .... but best of a Sunday, is your market! Stroll around a French market, filled with cheese, pepperoni, wines, fruits, vegetables .... has a very pleasing ending: pic-nic!
Today I stopped at a place of pepperoni (my weakness) and I could not resist buying a small piece ..... Marta did not resist the cheese ... and if we add that the place was sold bulk wine, as we already had the perfect combination! Now we only need the location, in a wonderful place like this is hard to choose .... but a nice wooden table, along the Aveyron river, and views of the medieval village, is priceless! health whether that wine! and much good to the products of the land ....

When we moving to Montauban Thought ... what the heck??? It Seemed nice enough, But Not To Be the first choice in the contest for a place to live ... now i have changed my mind .. Not about the beauty of the town Itself ... but about the region we live in. Sunday We Went to visit St. Antonin Noble-Val-a breathtaking, beautifull medieval, quote Which is only about 40km from Mtauban. Already But the way to St. Antonin WAS woooow's full of my and WHOOOOAAA's. The town sits on the bank of the Aveyron, beneath the beetling cliffs of the Roc d'Anglars. And these monumental rocks make an icredible impression...make you wanna jump out of the car straight into wild nature.
The town is full of old houses, which all seem empty and ghosthaunted. In most of them nobody is living (anyone up to squat the town?!) and they are not renovated. The city smells of old, humid basements made of rock...but it's a nice smell- makes you think about the stories enchanted in the old walls...
Sunday is also the market day there... so the pleasure was doubled... the perfect views and the perfect pic-nic after sightseeing... cheese, olives, wine from plastic bottle (sold on the street... 1 euro/1l and really not so bad, but sooo strong ...)
Let's just say That this was the first but not the last visit there ... We see it as a research before discovering the real of the region .... kayaking, trekking, cycling, horse riding, climbing: Adventure here we come!
Szorcik Montauban already seized, so the time was to move beyond the boundaries ... no, and it was worth .... I breath deny these views: rocky river valleys, majestic cliffs overgrown with bushes, mountain streams and miles of open space, waiting for them to score. Well, Saint Antonin lovely medieval town where we were able to taste the local specialties (oh, those cheeses) straight out of Sunday's tarowiska, doing z widokiem Piknik na to ze rodem architektoniczne cudenko sredniowiecza.
