Aragon 1.2

The second part of today's journey was interesting. The weather perked up around Rouen to give some prolonged sunshine but it clouded over later. At least I wasnt cold any more, as it did warm up the further south I got.

My scheduled fuel stop, wasn't. I stopped at the Intermarche pumps as planned but my card was declined. I carried on for another 28 miles or so, until I found myself in Chateadun, where I'll be staying next Tuesday. Another Intermarche, same result. A native seemed to be having the same issue. Computer says No! A couple of miles further on, I finally managed to get some fuel.  Ginny had covered 289 miles by then, beating her previous best by 2 miles.

The last section was quite slow going, not just because I hit Tours at knocking off time either but I did catch sight of quite a few wild deer along the way, which was pretty good. 

I arrived at Mister Bed at 17:55. A quick change and I was out to get some grub.  Lunch never happened, so I was ready for something. I checked out several of the eateries around but settled for the Buffalo Grill, so give yourself a point if you guessed that. 

Back in the room, I'm looking for some Champions League on the tv. Don't think they have any, least not on terrestrial tv. 

Till tomorrow then.
