St Palais sur Mer to Pornic

From one seaside campsite to another today and a 158 mile pootle in the van.
As there was no rush to get going this morning, I exercised the rather stiff tree trunks with a 23 mile ride around Charente Maritime. There are bike paths everywhere and much quieter on a Monday morning!

We stopped in a Decathlon en route to get Bob's redundant mate mended. Last week a delightful white van driver narrowly missed smashing our van's wing mirror but caught the bike on the back, damaging the front wheel spokes.
A delightful young man sorted it out for €10 - bargain!
Rusty then had no excuse so was dragged out for a 6 mile pootle around Pornic.


Sadly our accommodation this evening isn't here...

but here - the French camping equivalent of Butlins....

In future I will only be booking campsites in the middle of nowhere!
In other news, Rusty is continuing his campaign to turn into a crevette gris...
