Saint Suliac -27 June 2019

Saint Suliac -27 June 2019

Well, last day of this trip and it’s getting hotter. Tintin drove for about an hour to a grass area at Saint Suliac, quick lunch and out on our bikes. Too hot to do much we retreat to the shaded side of Dave and read books, and it’s hot! Actually booked a restaurant on the banks of the Rance for t

Saint-André-des-Eaux - 26 June 2019

Saint-André-des-Eaux - 26 June 2019

Where to go to escape the heat? We decided on an aire just south of Dinan at Saint-André-des-Eaux. Kay did the driving and we parked up in the lee of some trees, not actually in the moho park. Pleasant ride along the Rance all the way to Dinan port and back.

Saint-Aubin-du-Cormier - 25 June 2019

Saint-Aubin-du-Cormier - 25 June 2019

Drove for about two and a half hours to YPO Camp motorhome dealer south of Rennes. We thought we would have a look around mohos for a few hours, unfortunately no Mobilvetta’s, as they were all sold. Then onto Saint-Aubin-du-Cormier, a carpark by a lake for the night.

Le Vieil-Bargé - 24 June 2019

Le Vieil-Bargé - 24 June 2019

We decided to try and outrun the forthcoming heatwave, so Kay drove West for about two and a half hours, via Lidl, to Le Vieil-Bargé. It looks like Brittany and Normandy will be a lot cooler as the week progresses so we thought we would spend our last few days around there.

Saint-Dyé-sur-Loire - 23 June 2019

Saint-Dyé-sur-Loire - 23 June 2019

Had a quick look round a flea market opposite our carpark, mostly rubbish! Tintin drove for 45 minutes to Saint-Dyé-sur-Loire, passing through the Chambord estate on the way. Bikes out, and we rode to Château de Chambord and cycled round the estate rather than going inside.

Vernou-en-Sologne - 22 June 2019

Vernou-en-Sologne - 22 June 2019

Another 30 minute run to end the couch to 5k program, Jo Whiley says that we’re runners now! Kay drove for over an hour to Vernou where, once again, we just got our books out and sat in the shade.

Chaon - 21 June 2019

Chaon - 21 June 2019

Managed to get some diesel at a Super U and Tintin drove for an hour to Chaon, would have been less but for a French deviation to nowhere. It was a chairs out and read day with a bit of maintenance thrown in.
