Today began well. Had my usual concrete sandwich with black coffee at 645am. Then off at 715. Cool morning with clear skies. But don’t let those early morning photos fool ya. Started a 7 kilometer descent into the Allier River Gorge at a place called Monstriol. The terrain underfoot was rock, stone, slate and loose gravel. Ankle busting ground. I got through it though. The scenery 😍 made up for it.
That was going up. The Pic does not show how steep it was. There was a chapel built into the rock. Unreal. The pastor said I was past the worst part. He lied.
Made it to the top but so so tired. I stopped and had a power nap under the shade of a cherry tree thinking of the one I love. No, but it was a nice break. Then I met my two new girlfriends and they took my picture by this strange wood carving. Finally,after 8 hours I arrived at my gite.
My gite is wonderful. By the way I am all cramped up. That is OK though because I should be dead.
Today,s. walk.
That is okay because I should be dead….now that is funny…
So these were two new girlfriends to each other or to you…explain yourself mister..
Keep on trucking Jean
to me, of course but d,accord. too young. They spoke good English.
Ur are going well bai. Making friends as usual. Keep er lit bai. Onwards and probably upwards and downwards by the look of the terrain. 😎😎😎😎
