Day 7: Fontainebleau-Gien (95 Km)

Day 7: Fontainebleau-Gien (95 Km)

Today's journey has taken us through some magnificent parts of France, wow. 

After a great nights sleep in Font we were on the bikes for around 0900 & with a quick stop at the Boulangerie to stock up on various sweet pastries we were soon back on the road south. Our route today followed various country roads through small French towns, however, ALL the towns were silent. We soon realised that it must be a day of rest for the French. 

We stopped in the town of Montargis for our lunch. I must admit, a weird one today; a loaf of brioche with laughing cow cheese and chorizo. 

So where are we now? Gien. 

The view from our camp. The town of Gien in the backgroud with the River Loire. 

Dave!! the minion keeping me company on the journey-good guy, doesn't talk much though. 

Tomorrow we are heading for the town of  Bourges.
