We checked the forecast again and we either cross to the mainland later today or not for a week so we will chance it later but first of all a quick bit of shopping. Bugger the French have a National holiday on 1 Nov so only the Spar is open, a really quick shop then, on the plus that means Marina office is closed so no need to leave the berth until we actually want to head across the water. After shopping we decide to ride/walk to Chapelle Notre Dame de Serra on the hill overlooking town, we had seen this from the other side too. The ride bit was OK then it got very steep, then it became a gravel path, then more a water run off than a path and hauling the bikes up was a trial but great views at the top. Back down via the road and then a shower before the off. I have my sea bands, tablets and ginger biscuits all ready!Read more
