😀🚴🇫🇷Finally Some Warmth!🇫🇷🚴☀️

6:21 / 78 miles / 6,600 ft. This was one of our longer days in mileage, and also one of our tougher days of climbing. The sunshine and warmer weather, along with the beautiful scenery of the Cantal District would help the miles go by quickly. After nine days in legwarmers, I finally took them off because the temperature is warm enough! The Cantal area of France is absolutely fantastic. “The Cantal district of France is a hidden gem, boasting stunning volcanic landscapes, rolling green hills, and charming medieval villages. Its serene valleys, craggy peaks, and tranquil lakes create a captivating blend of rugged beauty and pastoral tranquility, perfect for nature lovers seeking unspoiled, picturesque scenery. The cows of Cantal, primarily of the Salers breed, are renowned for their rich milk, which is essential for producing the famous Cantal cheese. With their striking mahogany coats and sweeping horns, they graze the lush volcanic pastures of the region. Their hardy nature and deep connection to the land reflect Cantal's agricultural heritage.”(Thanks ChatGPT) We got to our airbnb about 5:30 PM, and I took a quick dip in the saltwater swimming pool as Lisa watched me with goosebumps. Our Airbnb was a cute little renovated stone cottage. We had a microwavable lasagna, some other cheeses, olives, and bread. For dessert, we devoured a large chocolate bar. Tomorrow will be another long day of about 70 miles, but the weather is predicted to be very nice.Read more
