Whilst driving through the Ardennes on our way to and
from Treignes (see below), we stopped at a few châteaux. |

One of the principal reasons for this weekend excursion
was to visit the Musée de Malgré Tout in Treignes, where
there was an archaeological exhibit on the Celts and Gallo-Romans of the
area. |

All throughout the countryside were these fields of yellow
wildflowers. Look at this picture. |

We stopped at a water source near Marche-les-Dames so
I could empty my Evian bottle and fill it up with this 'natural' water. |
