The day before our canoe trip on the Dordogne River in southwest France, it was cold and rained like crazy. Many of us were pretty pessimistic about the idea of spending two hours in a canoe. But the weather shifted, and we had a glorious, sunny afternoon, with blue skies, pleasantly warm air, soft breezes, and smooth water. It could not have been a better day for canoeing!
Most canoes held two people, so Paul and I had our own. We pushed off first, and could not believe the gorgeous, calm waters. Much of the river has lovely greenery on both sides, but we also passed three bridges, several castles, and some beautiful little towns, 
typical of the Perigord Region.

It was a terrific experience! And nobody fell in the water.
