To continue the story of our host last night…Noël told him we could be away at 6:30. I thought to myself WHAT???? So when our host left I asked Noël what he was thinking!! There’s snow on the ground, we don’t have that far to go 😂😂😂 and we don’t need to leave that early. When the host brought us dinner I mentioned that we wouldn’t be leaving that early and he said, “this is your home you come and go as you like” in a beautiful French accent. Also the dinner was amazing, spaghetti bolognese with carrots from his father’s garden, a pear pie with almonds and banana bread for breakfast. Wow!!

We really got started late but weren’t too worried because we had 17 no 19 no 20 kms to go. 14 to our first stop. It was okay. We walked through farmland and along the river. It was peaceful.

After our stop we wandered out of town with a slight detour. And we ate the leftover pizza from yesterday’s lovely stop. It was so yummy still. Of course we were hungry. We were looking for the town’s Mairie (city hall) so we could get our stamp but didn’t find it. Also we decided to stay on the official route instead of taking the fastest way. We found another open cafe after 9+ kms. And after checking local restaurants we decided to switch plans of eating out tonight and cooking tomorrow to cooking tonight and eating out tomorrow. Honestly it just made sense because all the restaurants said closed open on Tuesday. 😂

So we stopped by the Lidl for provisions and came to our accommodation. We relaxed a bit and then put on a feast of steak, potatoes gratin and a nice salad.

After dinner we had a bath, a bit of relaxing and then off to bed. We are taking a rest day tomorrow. So I’m planning on doing some reflections of the trip thus far. we ended up walking 26,5 kms.

Hope you are well. Thank you for following. And thank you for contributing to our gofundme.
