Day 39 - Cahors to Moissac
5月29日, フランス ⋅ ☁️ 17 °C
After a lovely night in our medieval apartment in Cahors we had a hunt for a bakery that served breakfast. The Plodicus led the charge through the morning drizzle. After a few false starts we hit gold with the great smells of coffee and fresh pastries. As we tucked into these delights our friendly Dutch/Estonian couple spotted us and joined us for breakfast. They had finished their walk and were returning home tomorrow.
As we returned to the apartment to collect our rucksacks and head for the station. Today was a rest day from walking but we were hopping along our route to Moissac - a time saving device to ensure we finish our pilgrimage in the brexit defined 90 days!!

We headed for tonight’s accommodation at 3.30 to be greeted by our hostess Veronique. A former teacher turned guest house owner. She has an amazing house with a beautiful garden - and I think we are the only guests tonight. She has recommended a trip to the canal quarter of the town this evening. We shall see …もっと詳しく
旅行者 Fab trains, loved the sloping floors and the fact they leave and arrive in time
旅行者 Exactly - more trains tomorrow as we continue hopping along x
旅行者 Have just done a massive read of your journeys so far. Impressions: deluge rain, rain rain, soggy feet, indomitability - the way you keep going, whatever, lots of gorgeous countryside, lovely and not so easy people on the trail, language learning en route and always a sigh of relief and joy when you get good food. Thanks for the story telling and the pics.
旅行者 An amazing sum up of our journey to date 🥰🤗💕
