Only six weeks to go and I am still working on trying to understand my guide books and adding my detours, walkabaouts, and side-trips. Just before Chapelet is the Abbey of Puyfferand (Puy-Ferand?) a place to stop and look around for sure and just after Chapelet is the Romanesque church at Saint-Jeanvrin and down the chemin close by is Chateaumeillant. Chateaumeillant appears to be a very unremarkable sort of place, nothing to complain about but not very exciting either. "Let's check the wine," Scruffy said seeking encouragement. "In order to taste the local wine one must be very lucky", I read. "Almost all is consumed locally". Interesting but the article continues, "Lucky and courageous since it's pretty awful stuff." Remember! You saw it first here on the forum.
