Montelimar

Very quick stop over at Montelimar. Slept in a car park and by luck it had a Laverie for washing our very smelly cloths. Quick shop and after doing a few laps of the town, found the Tour Depart. Checked out the vide. Got heaps of fresh fruit, but no luck with getting a coffee.

Culoz

Found a camping ground on the out skirt of town, Asked if there was any vacancies and they weren't sure. Told us we could enjoy the facilities for the day ie shower pool toilet and to come back at 5pm. We parked in the car park, we had TV and a nice quiet spot, so I slipped the owner 20 euro which allowed us to stay in the car park for 2 days, still allowing us to use the shower. Went walking the town and there was a big wine tasting festival on. Singing dancing food, wine spitting.

Lac de Bourget

Lac de Bourget.
Large lake fence off so you need to pay if you want to swim
Road twist and turns, looks like the movies. Railway line crossing over and under. Boulevard Jean Charcot
Planned picnic by the lake but ended up driving too far past it.
Warm and still have the flu
