Échiré - 24 October 2019
Kay drove for under an hour to the aire at Échiré, just moving to try and avoid most of the rain in the general direction of St Malo.
24 October
Ultra quick blog today, not much to say!
Had a headache last night, which kept waking me up - first paracetamol this trip this morning - which has helped!
I drove for about 40 minutes, and we’re parked up on an Aire with 4 spaces at Échiré.
Whilst driving we saw three blades of a wind turbine being delivered somewhere. Um, interesting going around corners!
Walked into the town - yes, another church! Bought a baguette and one apricot flan from the boulangerie. Shared the flan with afternoon cuppa - probably not worth getting fatter for! Now the 40c doughnuts from Lidl - different entirely! They even have jam squirted in two holes, are really light, and have a form of icing sugar on top - no need to lick lips as often!
The bread was very tasty, we’d bought some cheese earlier which has turned out to be very smelly every time we open the fridge - so that has to be eaten!
After lunch, went for a brief walk as the Aire backs onto a green area. Weather looked iffy, so came back to Dave.
I’ve started on my 11th book - and still haven’t read as much as previously! Tintin’s first book was over 1,000 pages, so that’s slowed him down a bit.
It’s now 6pm, and the threatened rain is actually happening!
Maybe we’ll find a town of more interest tomorrow...
Happy birthday Caroline - see you soon!
