Day 9: Henrichemont-Bourges (35 Km)

Day 8: Henrichemont-Bourges (35 Km)

The day of pictures...

We pass lots of fields everyday,however, this field has been my favourite so far. Lots of flowers. 

Don't really know what to say about this one... ... As you can see I've attached a new rocket to the back of my bike for added propulsion up the hills, winner!!!

2 heavy bikes outside Gare de Bourges.  

It was a hot, hot, hot day today. Not a cloud in site. 

We spent some time watching the French Army prepare for a parade which we then watched the beginning of this evening. Still don't know what it was about though. 

Not something you expect to see this far south of Dover.

We spent our afternoon eating French baguettes and ice lollies whilst resting in the shade of some lovely trees in the middle of town.

We are now in another campsite this evening as the local youth hostel wanted to charge us €25 each for one night in a dodgy dorm. 

Tomorrow we are jumping on the train to Toulouse as we want to get the Pyrenees done before the snow hits. Our plan for the next couple of weeks is; Toulouse-Andorra-Barcelona. Here comes the pain train legs!!
