The ground was becoming quite flat in this region. And as well as crops, we passed quite a few vineyards today. 
As my Quebec friends came from Montreal, they had a special interest in coming to this town with Montreal in its name.
And the town seemed particularly welcoming. The tourist office woman was very helpful. And there was a small museum attached that gave some ideas about the nearby Roman villa ruins, as well as information about early mammal fossils, and neolithic objects found in the area. 
Later I learned it was even possible to go to the Mayor's office and use a computer to access the internet.... a very welcoming young man left his desk so I could use his computer.. wow!
When we rested at our gite for the night, we saw groups of school-children walking back from the Roman ruins. To finish the day....there was a spectacular thunderstorm .
