History tells us about the Roman invasion, archeologists are working long hours searching for objects, houses and even cities buried underground. I happened to be staying with a good friend in Eauze; near Auch, when a visit of the fouilles romaines and of the museum was offered by the town. it was very interesting, I had forgotten how the Roman lived and built their home, for the time they were very advanced showing good engineering technics. great to have long summer days as we gathered in the evening on the city place where the Mayor offered a cold dinner and free drinks....a replica of the emperor costume found in the wall of the Cafe de France was given to the cafe owner ....the chief archeologist was honoured and named Citoyen d honneur de la ville d Eauze; we had a fabulous time!
I love this area of le Gers, there are a multitude of country roads with no traffic at all , going through hills, vineyards, pretty valleys
