DAY 2: Going through the Massif Central

Tuesday 7/7/2020

Definition of holiday (for me) is having a café crème and a croissant at the village bar. Having a chat with the bar (wo)man and enjoy breakfast on the terrasse  with early sun warming my face. Simple and easy.

Deep valleys and curvy roads are announcing Central France hilly landscape. There are 1.000.000 bents waiting for us between fields, cows and villages.

Lunch with a view on a castle near Brives-la-Gaillarde. Roads are narrow, we are mostly in 3rd gear. Great drive. Nicolas close to throwing up :-) Very courageous to sit in that sidecar.

Coffee break in medieval Argentat-sur-Dordogne - been there already a few years ago on another bike trip in the Cevennes. Fantastic roofs ...

At the frontdoor of Toulouse, we stay the night in another little camping in Puygaillard-de-Quercy. Nobody there. Where are all the tourists ? Free choice of pitching place.

Temperature is back in the 30°C. Time to get some drinks and a little swim.

Tomorrow, we'll do the 50 km to Toulouse and visit Aeroscopia.
