Day 46 - Ornans to Mouthier Haute Pierre

A short walk of 16 km today - very pleasant. I took my time and lots of photos. The hotel at Ornans had a wellness centre attached for the use of guests. Before breakfast, I had a 20 minute session in the relaxation pod and 15 minutes on the massage bed - what luxury! The countryside has changed significantly. I appear to have moved on from the flat landscape and the wide open spaces I am used to seeing every day. That's to be expected, I suppose. I have included a picture of a cow wearing a bell, just so you know I wasn't imagining it.Read more

Carmel CarlsenI'd been thinking how much I could do with a massage and low and behold, somehow, against all odds, it suddenly is an option! I'm almost beginning to think I have magical powers LOL
