Decided to leave Cavaillon early instead of waiting all day for the tour to come thru, and headed down to Nimes to get the vide at the finish, about a one hour drive in the rain and thunder. Did a 12 minute run with BB following the final 2k of today's stage. Picked up a baguette and some yogurt for the day, unlike home , the supermarkets here don't open on a Sunday, so you rely of finding little corner shops. But you will always find a baguette, every single day of the year. Took some photos and a nice man offered to take a photo of us both
Managed to even do the 12 run back to the car, most running all week.
Another 2hours driving down to Carcassonne, the Ibis we had booked into didn't have our room ready, it was still early 11am, so we headed off down to the towns major attraction. Site de Medieval Citi. People everywhere , arriving by the bus loads. It certainly is a magnificent Fortress, but it appears to be so commercialised now with heaps of restaurants, creperey's , lolly shops, souvenir shops and products of the region just fill the place. It was slow moving as we made our way thru with all the people to try and take some photo's and video's. Lucky the rain had cleared to a sunny 26ish but the wind was up. Went past a lolly shop , my biggest weakness, and wow, it had the best lolly's ever, only thing that stopped me from buying some the cost of 9euro 80c, which is about 5 lolly's.
BB did and 1 hour run and I did a walk, was meant to head towards the river, but sill me went in the total wrong direction, should know by now rivers aren't up the hill!!!!
Tinned corn and mustard for me and a tin of Peas and Carrots for BB, along with left over baguette. So easy, beats cooking any day, Prepared in 2 minutes and cleaned up in 1 minute.
