Well having put shoes & all other wet items on the heated towel rail, everything seems to be dry. Great news!

Today has been an “easy” day, 80 miles & 3000 ft of ascent. Cycling past fields of corn, wheat, barley & sunflowers scattered with wild poppies, absolutely beautiful, I think the sunflowers 🌻 will be flowering during the Tour de France.

We passed some beautiful Château and had a lovely lunch in a small cafe. To make sure we kept our heads down, we had rain 🌧️ again, fortunately not quite as bad as yesterday but certainly enough so we didn’t deviate off route to look at any more Château or the troglodytes dwellings, 🙁 We are now in a lovely hotel and about to go out for some supper. The weather forecast for tomorrow is more thunderstorms & rain, fingers crossed they have it wrong.

bon appétit

Loving the blog! an Easy Day, for you maybe with your stamina and determination. The photos look great and sounds a tough day with the ascent and the mileage you have to do. Did the rain help to cool off?
Glad the clothes and shoes dried after your downpour the previous day.
Enjoy your nice Hotel and we all look forward to the next update

Am enjoying your diary, but hate to think what a 'hard' day is going to be like! It looks like a fabulous adventure though.
