Spa at Eugine Les Baines

The Queen and I took a drive from Condom to a hidden gem known to locals as the place to take "the cure".  A spot invented ages ago, where people may go to treat ailments with thermal water. There is a lingering stench of sulphur from the baths, but the pristine spa with its inviting aroma of lavender makes up for it.  The spa's brochure offered over 200 treatments, all divine in their own right.
The one the Queen opted for was much enjoyed.
The hotel on the premises caters to gourmands and dieting folks as well.  The "minceur" menu was intriguing, but the queen and I opted for the more rich menu offered at the Relais hotel with a Michelin chef. After all, what's the point in being in France if you can't indulge in Champagne, Fois Gras and bread!
