Week end with Mike and Misako

Mike and Misako are my friends from England (Ashford actually). She's Japanese, he is definitely an English man!
They came to visit us and stayed only a few days in our new house-which they liked- (from Thursday night to Saturday afternoon). It was a really short stay, but so nice to see them again.
On Saturday, we went to Guedelon (about an hour and a half far from where we live). I liked the idea, the concept and I must admit it is really well done! The carpenters, blacksmiths, rope makers, quarrymen, stone cutters, etc are friendly guys ready to explain and laugh with you. Special mention for the blacksmith who was particularly cutting and funny.
The archer advised us to go and see the historical show in Saint Fargeau Castle. Therefore, I think I'll take Manu to see it with me (unfortunately he could not join us for Guedelon's visit as he had some problems with his work).
We came back home and had dinner with Mum (nibbles for aperitif with Ricard, Lambrusco, and beers followed by asparagus-not fresh ones though-, pasta carbonara and Tiramisu).
On Saturday, we went to the commercial fair in Bourges "staring" Tahity. We also went to the supermarket and to have a drink in one of our favourite bars in Bourges (Le Beau Bar).
It was already 04.30, time for our friends to take the train and return home.
We had a lovely week end and I hope they enjoyed it too.
