53 miles, 1500 ft of ascent

We met 2 lovely people in the restaurant last night with the most romantic & beautiful love story, they met at the age of 18 and then separated, both got married (not to each other) had children & both have recently lost their partners. They met up again after 55 years & are now a couple, so happy and in love ❤️they looked perfect together.

Today has been glorious, we set off in blue skies – yippee what a difference. The cycling was pretty flat, a bit like going across the fens in a head wind, so my ear and shoulders have got to know each other quite well (it’s not a good look) The views (obviously I spoilt this one) were simply wonderful. Sunflowers 🌻 blooming in the middle of a wheat field, lunch was roadside picnic. I cycled most of the day with Richard who is lovely & we had a nice bumble having a chat 😊

After lunch we pedalled into Argenton & the heavens opened, fortunately we managed to get to our hotel before getting too wet. The hotel is amazing, this is the view from my room window. What’s not to like 🥰If it stops raining I will go for a walk, if not I will simply sit and enjoy the view and have a cup of camomile tea 🫖. See you tomorrow xx
