Hallelujah, I am still alive.
My French maid but she is the silent type.
Up at oh-dark 30 but had to wait a bit until Antoine opened for breaky. He would not let me pay or go until I had breakfast, which consisted of a concrete sandwich and a bowl of coffee. Not good. Margit’s breakfasts were awesome. I am so thirsty.
Le Puy was great. I had one of the best burgers 🍔 I have ever had, avec friet met mayonnaise. I washed that down with a few beers. Here is my before I started picture:
Here is my after picture:
Not good, I know. It was a moderate slog today but the temperature was perfect for walking. Countryside was awesome. Last 5 km were the worst. A steady uphill climb of about 120 meters followed by a 1 km descent into hell. If not for my poles I would have been fooked. It took me 1 hour to cover off 0.9 kilometers. 😖. Having said that the scenery is fantastic. Oh, and I could get Orangina again.
Awesome vid that covers off the first stage. Le Puy to Saint Privat.
I know it is not a French song but it is uplifting just the same.
Love your post as always! Of course the music was a great finishing touch!
Sorry about concrete sandwich! Must be a French thing! ☹️
Love and hugs,
Yes it was. Tough day today though.
How do I answer that question without getting my knuckles cracked? lol.
Are you homesick for my cooking yet??
The pictures are amazing
Love ya
