Trying to get started after a rest day is difficult, especially when breakfast is served at anytime from 7.00 – 10.00. But we ma aged quite well and we set off at 7.30 and arrived at the dining room by 7.32. Fruit, cereal, yogyog, croissant, eggs, bacon and 2 coffees later we are ready to pack up our room.

To get us back in chemin mood we have decided on a short walk of 15km. Which was ideal in the heat we have and also where we are staying has a swimming pool

On arrival (90 minutes early) we are shown our accommodation, I am informed that I need swimming togs and I can’t wear shorts. So I have to borrow some.

So a quick shower to get rid of the dust from the road and it’s off to the pool. A nice warm 27°. We will e back later but for now it’s the boring daily ritual of clothes washing.
