Reluctantly we left our beautiful chateau and cycled off in the dark mist again. The sunrise was beautiful, the fields bigger, the hedges lower and it’s still very rural with the sweet smell of silage wafting o er us as the huge tractors drove past us along the country lanes – all so familiar to us from Devon. It became far too hot to even contemplating walking around the Roman remains in Sanxay, so we chilled on the shady grass in the centre of town and cycled on. When we arrived at Lusignan, we headed straight to Intermarche to buy a lead to charge Neils lights and a power pack to charge our phones as we are both using them for navigation. From now on we’ll be much safer cycling in the dark and no more chatting up bar owners to charge me phone. The meal in our Chapeau Rouge hotel was as wonderful as advertised. Then straight to bed as it was so, so hot. I saw the kick off of the France NZ World Cup rugby match, then fell promptly asleep. Neil made it to half time before zzzzzzzzzz.
