Day 2: la Monastier to Bouchet St Nicolas
Bloody hills! Here's another, coming out of le Monastier. Poor Modestine!
One of my favourite views of the trip.
Just another pic.
Lunch stop outside a hamlet - complete with a (dead) potplant containing a Puy lentil plant.
It's moments like these ...... this was a lovely part of the walk.
What exactly did Rex say that so upset the lady in the boulangerie? She was nice to us ;)
Just another view that took my fancy.
Lunch by the infant Loire.
Ah, there's another of those pesky white on red signs - not all of them are as easy to find as this though.
Di and Rex - the youngest and oldest on the walk.
The last hill before seeing l'Arrestadou (or so we thought).
l'Arrestadou ferme auberge was a welcome sight indeed after a pretty long and hectic walk.
GREAT food and free wine - can't complain about that.
Now that's a cheese plate!
