After rain all night long I woke up to a very soggy tent. Although the rain had stopped and I could see blue sky.
The lovely owner of Camping Canadienne said what I was doing was good and that I didn’t have to pay for the nights camping. After thanking him, I left.
Day started well, I’d made good progress around the estuary and now i was heading south again on yet more long straight roads. Everything felt good and I appeared to be steaming along!
This didn’t really change much, I felt like I could go for ever. Although for breakfast I’d had a french stick full of honey, then i stopped for a croissant at the earliest convenience, then I stopped again for a croissant but chose a pizza. Oh and then I stopped and had a big mac meal from some restaurant…the name escapes me.
I’d forgot to mention previously. Although my only plan was to join the camino de santiago in Spain. It would appear much of my route through France follows the same route.
Two fo the campsites I’d chosen for my nights stay were shut. So I kept pushing on and made it to a little place called Leon (North of Bayonne).
