Day 43 - Eauze to Nogaro

The French people staying at our Gite were up at 6 clattering in the kitchen, making coffee and sawing the bread. They don’t hold back on their chitter chatter, Colin and Jane a little bemused by this early alarm call.
We were up and about after 7 giving the French an hour to use the kitchen! However as we got started on our breakfast preparations we were invaded by a second wave of French pilgrims who were staying in additional accommodation across the garden. So was quite a busy kitchen! Colin wandered around in his dressing gown mumbling ‘crikey’!
We did eventually get to the coffee pot and bread 😂
So at 8.30 we bade farewell to Colin and Jane who were heading south towards Nice and the cote d’azure.
We set off on a 21km march to Nogaro.
It was a warm day with many sunny moments. Mostly a pleasant walk but we did meet boggy muddy sections where we had to hang onto trees to try and keep our feet dry!!
Again lots of vineyards and rolling meadows, with clusters of woodland.
Made it to Nogaro and celebrated with coffee and ice cream.
A beautiful house, with lovely back garden and swimming pool. We are only renting a bedroom though!
Have put all laundry on the line and Simon is praying it dries as he hates the idea of smelling like an old goat as a result of damp clothes- he really dislikes this smell!!!
We will head back into town for food then attempt an early night - subject to washing being dry of course 🤞
They have a lot of ‘3 legs’ memorabilia around - not sure what that’s all about??!!Læs mere
