• Vienne

    October 1, 2024 in France ⋅ 🌬 19 °C

    Day started good with a run along the Moselle. I returned with a fresh coffee for sleeping beauty. We set off at about 10ish in sunshine, which very quickly turned into torrential downpour. Stopped in Luxembourg for fuel...dirt cheap. Fortunately, the French are very careful drivers, so it was a pleasurable experience driving in the rain. During an insane moment, I foolishly thought it would be a great idea to stop over in Lyon...2hrs later after a frustrating and colourful (language) drive through the city during rush hour. I changed my mind, and after finally escaping the traffic, we got to Vienne for the night. We found a Hotel (de la Poste) that looks like a film set for a Horror movie but managed to barter the price down. We went out for fish and some beers in a lovely restaurant...Pilar had chips and tomato sauce. We finished with a lovely evening walk through the town. Spain tomorrow 🇪🇸 🇪🇸 🇪🇸Read more
