Monistroll d’Allier to Saugues

After the downhill of yesterday it is going to be up, up, up today.

But first of all it is bon chemin to Susan, Lynda and Jennifer. They are walking 26km today and decided to leave before breakfast, in the rain, to try and keep ahead of the predicted thunderstorms.

At breakfast we informed our host of their early departure. He gave a shrug and burst into song, “I’m singing in the rain, just singing in the rain”, with his French accent.

Other walkers had pre-warned us of the steep and difficult start to today’s walk. This however wasn’t as hard as expected.

The walk was pleasant with a couple of light showers before we arrived at Saugues, which was a welcome relief as thunder storms had been forecast.

Unfortunately the tracking app appears to have failed today. Perhaps I should have 2 apps recording our route.
