Carsac, France

I drove by this small town on the bus on my way to Sarlat. There was just something charming about it in that it looked pretty non-descript. Nothing extraordinary and no tourist traps. I spent a day near the end of my Sarlat time and was pleasantly surprised. There was one church that was open to visitors, but I saw not a soul. The graveyard was pretty and the roads winding and never-ending. I just walked and walked and enjoyed the beautiful scenery. What I loved the most were the houses built almost right up against the cliffs, like it was no big deal. A really charming town with absolutely no interest in being charming.
