The walk in Ittre was very pleasant, as usual. This time, the sun was high in the sky, the temperature soared to 25C and we had to add sun cream before starting our two-hour walk.
At first, we walked on a shaded path along a stream for 45 minutes. A lovely surprise was waiting for us when we emerged into the open. A new-born foal, its coat like a cuddly toy, was standing next to its mother, all fluffy and cute, very interested in all the ladies cooing their delight. Viviane tried to offer it some grass, but it was more interested in suckling.
One hundred meters further on we discovered another newborn colt, struggling to its feet to suckle. Such a delicate, slim animal.
Finally we arrived at the Theatre de la Valette tavern where we quenched our thirst. Sheila was already sitting on the terrace and welcomed us with her big smile.
