The local goats were a lot of fun to watch.

What a great cycle touring day, complete with incredible scenery, a gentle climb and a fun descent, goat kisses and another wonderful hotel to enjoy. The Ardèche is a stunning place that remains etched in our memories but sadly, our 2001 experience here was not great. David had picked up a stomach bug and it was 42 degreeI. He was sick as a dog as we rode through Valon Pont d’Arc and finished at Pont St. Esprit, with his head down the whole way. It just might be time for us to re-visit it.

Gorge de la Nesque… makes me swoon at the memories of it. That’s worth a do-over any time!

Are you tempted to do the paddle down river and bus back? Sounds to me like a nice lazy way to enjoy the views from the river.

Yom, yom, lick, lick…what a nice salty treat for the local chèvres.

I see a millstone, so it was probably a mill.

Thank you! You should see us this morning. Gorgeous setting, gorgeous accommodation and pool and it is 10:45 AM and we haven’t managed to leave yet 😂. We have a day ride planned but are very relaxed.

Having done the Nesque Gorge, that isn’t shabby either, but I agree, this was amazing. Hoping your health is galloping along in the right direction now that you have the antibiotics.

Since we are here for three nights I am gently encouraging him to shave!

And we have found the perfect place to stay in Vallon. Couleurs du Sud. We don’t want to leave!

My out and back thru the gorge with Steve and Ann was one of the most memorable days of my 2022 tour. So glad you had such a great ride, and wonderful weather to enjoy all the spectacular views
