Ah, the joys of maps or map reading. One or the other caused us, with
Sharon wiped out, to do over 50 miles including some long grades that had to
be descended again.
Nice B&B but not where it was marked on the map; we both looked. Went about
7km past it (uphill) and then had to retrace our steps. Jacques, the
propriatare saw that QB was tired and when I asked about a place for dinner
he served a rice and poulet dinner, with wine, beer and cake. Local maple
syrup was poured over the cake. Quite good. May serve cake this way some
time in the future.
Second maple syrup of the day as it was liberally poured over our french
toast at breakfast. Lunch was also quite good with a poulet sandwich on
very dark bread at a local eatery in Mont Tremblont.
As to eating well, the insects ate very well today: very well indeed. Some
special 3M Ultra…. insect stuff (from my Vietnam trip and the travel
advisory group) helped. The supposedly soothing bug bite stuff was most a
bust.
When we checked out of the hotel in Nominingue we could not find anyone to
check us out. Same circumstance when we arrived, The had our credit card
from reservation time. Had dinner, breakfast, room. Never met anyone
except the masseuse who claimed to be family.
Ride was half on asphalt and half on crushed rock and hard dirt. No rain
so it worked find.
No pics today as they are on the Android and right not it is not working:
just the eee seems to be able to hold a connection. Will send pics later.
