I started the day with a run/walk. Strange that I felt I needed more exercise, I hear you say. The reason was that the bent over position on the bike was giving my lower back some stick. Fine on the bike, but sitting on a normal chair was strangely painful!?
Sue had had a bad night at the Fawlty Towers, as the bed was too small, the sheets were itching and I had allegedly been snoring all night; untrue of course!
For these 2 reasons I decided to leave her to sleep some more and I’d try to loosen by back, and return with some breakfast, and provisions for the day ahead.
I was glad of my decision, as it was a fresh beautiful morning after rain overnight.
sight except the the little fellow looking out of the clock tower window!
Our cycling day was largely along the Canal de Centre. Very pretty, and quite a few boats and locks.
This was our final farewell to the beautiful Loire. For the last 840 kms we’ve followed her journey, enjoyed her wildlife,her sandy beaches and refreshing waters. She still continues another 200kms, southwards to her source. We now headed NE towards the Saône, largely following the canal for the rest of the day.
