More gorgeous riding… Yesterday we rode down to the bridge built by Mr. Eiffel and then up and around and eventually through a town on the San Juan Campostela route.
The bridge looks just like the Eiffel Tower but sideways.
Down below we saw that the Tour de France had passed through this year!
Then up some very steep roads onto a plateau of farm country.
For lunch we stopped at a tiny hotel-restaurant in a village that had been burned to the ground by the Germans.
For our afternoon ice creams, we took some time to visit Saugues, a major stop for pilgrims making their way down France to San Juan Campostela. The place was packed with hikers. The road had small plaques in it.
There was the “English Tower” and a church with an unusual design where we listened to a man practicing the organ. Quite delightful!
