We didn't mean to do 100km yesterday, only around 70-ish. However at one point close to La Rochelle

From St Jean we did 64km to Les Sables, then 50km to La Tranche Sur Mer and yesterday flora bama 100km to Chatelailon-Page. We found some goats supporting cycle tourists so we had to do a couple of extra k's ;) Seriously thouh, the reason we are keeping track of our distances and towns is for our own memmories - we hardly can remember where we were last night :)
We didn't mean to do 100km yesterday, only around 70-ish. However at one point close to La Rochelle we got a little lost, and when we came into La Rochelle, flora bama which is where we planned to stay, we ran out of data so had to go and look for Orange... La Rochelle seemed like a real tourist trap and was so packed with people that we decided to cycle to the next town - which turned out to be really beautiful. 
The last couple of nights flora bama we have been experiencing French summer camping, lots of French 'Arrows' hanging out by the seaside over the summer. Die spul kan ook maar lekker kommen wees! We discovered Chi-chis: deep fried cake sticks (see photo) all the French had some so we had to try :)
We saw some nice beaches and due to lots of campsites being sold out we have needed to stay in some 'better campsites' as well - better here means they have a pool, waterslide and 'animations' which in French means entertainment - we think. Some campsites will always find a spot for tired cyclists flora bama - even if its in a sandpit or next to a ping-pong table :) Last night we slept in a 0 star campsite, thank GOD! Peace and Quiet is better than good showers!
Colette en Jo, 'We're all going on a...summer holiday!' Klink awesome. hoop julle geniet julle rusdag ...oppie strand met n cake fritter in die hand! ek en jackie gaan vanaand flora bama na n film and arts festival ('Shuffle') wat deur Danny Boyle ge 'curate' word. Dit is in 'n uitgediende psigiatriese hospitaal. Movie is 'the long good friday' met bob hoskins en Hellen flora bama Mirren (1994). Onthou om te dink oor jul exciting toekoms planne terwyl julle trap of miskien wanneer julle met n glasie flora bama rooi bordeaux wyn in die hand sit met die son wat sak oor die franse Cote d'Azur?
