• Day 7 Biking Boucle des Châteaux

    September 7, 2024 in France ⋅ ☀️ 22 °C

    We ventured out today trying to use All Trails to find the 31 K route called Boucle des Châteaux - so frustrating. I had downloaded the map and gave my phone to Peter to follow the route, but the phone kept shutting down & we kept heading off in the wrong direction.

    We did see some interesting sites on route though - old church in Cayak, Bordeaux University, small markets, etc. We finally gave up on All Trails and used Google maps to get us back to Pont St Jean. From there we knew our way home.

    Being about 5:30 now, without lunch, it was time for a pause. We found a sunny table at Cathedral St Andrè and enjoyed the beer and people watching.

    We have the bikes now until Tuesday morning - just hope the weather cooperates. It’s been quite rainy & cold so far.
