Day 15 - 1,000 miles cycling across France 🇫🇷 + Spain 🇪🇸

I woke up and had coffee with the Russian and German couple. They told me that they had taken a walk which lasted until 3 o’clock in the morning. I asked the Russian girl if they’d resolve things and she said no.

I showered packed my bags including a wet tent and then rode across to the lake and took a 10 minute swim. I’m always nervous when swimming in open water because I cannot see what is beneath me. Whilst I was swimming I saw a tree as I was wearing my goggles and it kind of freaked me out.

I procrastinated for the morning going back to the campsite and having a coffee then seeing the Russian girl again and she said she had come to purchase a token for the drying machine. As I rode away from the campsite after my Americano I shouted hey guys see you later. To the couple.

Then I had to take a massive detour because the road cycle route along the coast is closed until the end of September.

I decided to go to Decathalon and buy a yoga mat and also went to a supermarket and bought myself a frying pan, plastic bowl, and some utensils.

I had wheeled my bike into the shopping mall and the security guard came over to me and asked me to take my bike out of the shopping mall which was kind of funny.

Then I cycled past a mini kind of private airport where I saw a plane take off and land… they were small planes. And then eventually rode past what looked like a really nice campsite so I turned round and went to the entrance and found reception.

Now I’m sitting here with a full belly having just eaten risotto and drank two glasses or should I say cups of red wine from Saint Emilion. Also I bought some cheese earlier with truffle, I am content.
