    • Day 86

      Gettin in the groove of Luz

      August 3, 2022 in France ⋅ ⛅ 21 °C

      Here is quite the collection. Emma and I went to the swimming pool between work :) we work 4 hours in the morning (8:30-12:30) and then 3 at night (6pm-9pm).
      Then there is the absolute ugliest bed we have ever made with Lise (she speaks the most English and we spend lots of time together at the Bar at night). Sorry to those customers 🥴🤢🤮
      Then there is my hotel brekkie and my hotel dinner - I have been eating a lot of toast with stuff of in - August is super busy so this is Sian’s diet and now mine too.

      Then here is a FaceTime with Jade and frankie when the time difference finally was okay.. they were just up late I think.

      This is Leenon , when she, Jaques and I got pizza and watched and movie and also got candy from the markets in the square that come every Friday and Monday. Thennnn here is a pretty view from my Saturday work- with an English guy cleaning apartments. Got my first paycheckkkk and ooo it feels good to have money coming in and not just going out 😊😎

      And then also the river in town.

      And lastttt to #keepitrealwithyouguys here is a picture I sent Scout while having a meltdown xx clearly wasn’t that funny at the time but quite the laugh to look back on. Glad I saved the photo. I’m completely fine though. I have quite a few of these in my camera roll.
      Super overtired and slept in until 11am on my rest day only to then have a 4 hour nap after lunch. :)

    • Day 8

      Top: Pyrenäen - Flop: Campingplatz

      October 17, 2022 in France ⋅ ⛅ 15 °C

      Heute ging’s um 10:00 weiter durch die Pyrenäen. Nach den gestern gefühlten 10.000 Kurven erst mal auf einer breiteren Und geraderen Straße. Vormittags wahr es bewölkt mit ein wenig Regen. Gegen Mittag machte der Himmel auf und die Sonne kam raus. Und wir kamen wieder auf immer kleinere Straßen. Es hat sich gelohnt. Wunderbare Fernsichten, tolle Wälder, Pässe bis 2072 Meter Höhe und alte kleine Ortschaften. Dazwischen mal die Kathedrale Notre-Dame de Saint-Bertrand-de-Comminges aus dem 12. Jahrhundert oder das Château de Mauvezin von 1380. Der größte Teil der Route war in Frankreich. Das war der gute Teil.
      Unser Ziel war der Campingplatz Cirque de Gavarnie, da wir morgen wandern wollte. Es ging weit und kurvig hinter, bis zum Ende der Sackstraße. Mir hat die Fahrerei, ca 285 km, auch ganz schön gelangt. Am Ziel angekommen: Campingplatz hat nur bis 30.9. geöffnet. Anfängerfehler und sehr ärgerlich 😡 Also ca 20 km zurück bis zur ersten Stellmöglichkeit.
      Schau ma mal was wir morgen machen❓

      Luz-Saint-Sauveur France Sat 30 Sep 2023

      September 30, 2023 in France ⋅ ☀️ 22 °C

      Back on the road again crossed into France using the 9km Aragnouet-Bielsa cross-border tunnel under the Pyrenees. Arrived at B&B Residence Eterle, Soucastet 14 L avenue de Saint Sauveur, Luz-Saint-Sauveur in the Occitania region of the French Pyrenees around 5pm and met the concierge who let us in to unit 14 in building L. Paid 100 euro deposit and 60 euros extra linen charge with cash. Lots of basic things missing like toilet paper, tea and hand towels, dishwasher tablets and a dishwasher control knob. There was a dance festival in Luz-Saint-Sauver with crowds of people. We walked into the village and purchased groceries from a small supermarket. Returned to the unit and ate dinner around 7.30pm.Read more

      Day 20 - Argeles-Gazost, 29 miles

      May 5, 2016 in France ⋅ ☀️ 20 °C

      I wasn't sure what to do today but after waking up and opening the shutters to another perfectly blue sky it had to be another day riding in the Pyrenees.

      Fully fuelled after breakfast I decided to head up the Route de Luz that cuts through a deep gorge steadily climbing as you follow the river full of rapids. More stunning scenery on both sides opens up once you reach the small town of Luz-Saint-Sauveur where two valleys meet. From here you can continue to the famous Col du Tourmalet but with the climb still closed due to the snow I will have to come back for this one!

      After a cycle round and a long lunch I descended back down the gorge to base and despite a more relaxed day than yesterday it would be rude not to spend an hour in Argeles-Gazost thermal spa! No board shorts allowed though so a pair of speedos purchased from the front desk it was. Not much left to the imagination in them things!

      Can't wait to come back on the carbon and really take on these mountains. Pyrenees I will see you soon. Bring on the Alps!
