Caves (not of the wine sort)

The weather turned a bit, so our planned canoeing down the river didn't happen.  Instead we went to see some caves with some fabulous stalactites and stalagmites.  I always thought they went up and down, but there were some interesting side-ways jobs.

Homes built into the rock wall (near Tours they are called troglodyte homes)

Going in...

The weird rock formations...

....some religious formations...

A treat outside...

And some of the biggest roses I've ever seen.
