Woke, and jumped out of bed to the window ... Yes, bike still there. And it looks like its going to be a hot day.
Took a look at the €4 breakfast - wasn't that appealing, but they had a coffee machine and in these days where everything is self serve, thought I would serve some myself some hot water, and use one of my 3 in 1 coffee sachets up. Thats all I need .... caffiene.
On the road by 8am, and straight into the French countryside. Had set the GPS to avoid all major highways, so at the expense of 3 extra hours, I was treated to a whole day of French countryside, albeit with the more than occasional tractor & trailer to manoeuvre around.
More to come when I get better wifi - I mean. one hour to upload 12 pics.... I should have used a carrier pigeon!

| The tunnel boring machine ... and to think when it was conceived, the major worry was rats coming through ! |
 |
| No good if you got hay fever here, |
 |
| Second caffeine fix |
 |
| Bends, give me bends. |
 |
| The bain of my life today. |
 |
| One good thing about France - fresh baguettes for breakfast. |
 |
| Arrras. |
 |
| Lunch was a practical affair today. |
Got checked in and decided to take a walk by the river .... turns out there was a "River Fete" going on.
 |
| This should help me sleep. |
