You have lucked out with the trails all along the coast, the beaches are beautiful and seem to go on forever! Beautiful!

Hi,
Bayonne is definitely more proletarian than Biarritz. Good ham though!

Hi,
I’m not totally sure, but that looks like the frigate Hermione,
a replica of the ship that brought Lafayette to America during the revolution. I saw her when I was in Bordeaux a couple of years ago.
Cheers,

Looking great guys! From polar bear swim to polar bear clothes in the same day. Your salad looks delicious- quite a feat to carry some necessary supplies as you travel. You are amazing Cyclists 🚴‍♀️!!

Omg- another bug day! Your guys are on fire 🔥! I can appreciate the entry of Ann smelling the pulp mill. Who could ever forget that! Ride on guys. Be happy- be well.

Yummm mussels AND fries! An interesting plastic trail- great solution to the sand. We saw conveyor belts in use on NS trail recently. You travelled quite a distance on this day. Hope to read of an easier one tomorrow. 🚴

Hi MA
Thanks for reading the blog! Yes traveling can be addictive. Can’t believe it’s a month already. We have two more nights in France.
Hope your fall is going well.
Sending hugs to you and Paul.

Thanks Keith made the correction on the blog.

Thanks made the change on our blog!

Yes, here is part of the text that went with the sculpture
“What ever our itinerary, vagabond or more sedentary, here is what will remain of us, ephemeral travellers on this earth: a bit of material, a pair of shoes, a suitcase .” I don’t know about you but it makes me glad I am spending some of my time traveling this beautiful world. Definitely have your today’s route on my bucket list. Thanks

Wow! I am beginning to understand why travel is such a thrill. So many spectacular vistas to experience. Those sand dunes are unbelievable. Found myself chuckling while reading your description of crawling out in the rain faces when you finally got to the ferry. Love reading your posts. Enjoy your trip. Sending best wishes for continued sunny days and safety as you move about. Hugs from NB.

Cork oak. Get used to this look. You’ll be seeing a lot of it when you get to Portugal.

Very evocative.

This looks wonderful. We’ve never seen this part of France west of Bordeaux.

Hi,
Cork oak, stripped to make corks. No fungus at all!
Cheers,
Keith
