Conerré near Le Mans

We were too tired to go to the flea market or the huge tapestry, both in Angers, so we had a slow morning, then went to see Aileen, keeping our distance due to colds. Had a lovely time chatting and eating home-made soup and bread. She's planning on making changes to her working life and where she lives at some point. Enjoying exploring options and considering different areas of France. She moved to her house 20 years ago, and has been working here, so has a good knowledge of French modes and mores. We last visited her in March 2020 and met up with her and Sarah on our last Harvey trip to the Lakes in Aug 2023.
After a subsequent drive through sunshine and a posh-looking toilet stop, we then had rain and a vibrant rainbow. John had a hankering for a kebab, so I searched for one online and found a choice in no time. Turns out it was within 10 mins walk from our planned overnight stop. So kerching, John was a happy bunny with a kebab (listed as a sandwich kebab).
Hope to see the tapestry and Angers another time when we have more 'oomph'.
Last night it was 2° and tonight 0° in the small hours here, so extra clothes on.
We are struggling to find campsites open. I had one earmarked for tomorrow, which is meant to be open from mid January but discovered it's not open till 1 April. Have found and booked one further north online for tomorrow and hoping it is in fact open.Leer más
