• Saint-Léopardin-d'Augy

    7 Disember 2024, Perancis ⋅ 🌬 10 °C

    We left our little aire at 9:30am and refilled our fresh water and tipped the gray and toilet, all for free. We had a 120 mile drive ahead of us today and it was raining and very windy.
    We had decided to take the toll roads again as it would get us to our destination 50 mins faster and I desperately needed to get on the bike.
    It took us 3 hours to get to our free aire in the quaint little hamlet of Saint-Léopardin-d'Augy. There are around 5 houses here. A town hall and a church and nothing else and they have put on a free to stay aire with 3 Motorhome bays on compact gravel and a free grey and black waste station but if you want fresh water you can buy a token at the town hall between 8:30am and 12:30pm. There are also beautifully clean toilets and a wet room with a shower next to the church and it has hot water.
    After a quick lunch and waiting for the rain to stop I went out in my bike and it was seriously wet and windy and half way through it pissed down again.
    The ride took me just over an hour and it felt good to stretch my legs although I was soaked to the skin when I got back but I took full advantage of the hot showers and once I was back in Wanda the rain came down again and the wind got up again.
    By 7pm it was lashing it down and the forecast was for rain for the rest of the night and all day tomorrow which will make for a long day of driving. Especially if it stays windy.
