Two entries today... After continuing this afternoon we walked about fifteen kilometres more bringing the grand total to thirty six. Now that's not a bad day.
We walked through vineyards and past houses with obvious Roman colonial influences, low pitched red-tiled roofs, columned porches, deep stone walls and windows. Didn't see many hypocausts though.
I have lost count of the number of crazy dogs who have surprised us by barking loudly right in our ears. Blasted hounds.
Our route planning has leaned towards quiet, if slightly longer roads with fewer (read none) 44 ton articulated trucks. This has been a pleasant way to see the French countryside.
This evening's camp is at the side of a cut wheat field and I have stuffed under the groundsheet of my tent with straw to make a sort of built-in palliasse. The jury is still out on the comfort verdict.
Jeremy and I bought a couple of packs of cards that seem to have been in the shop window since the early 1900's we played a hand of Gin before retiring.
I'll lull him into a false sense of security before suggesting poker.
I wish you could make a video
