August 25. Sunny and not too warm. Good day.
We are about 8 km from Aubrac a small ville with a 12th century church and
an old tower. Tour anglais.
Qb is still coughing but is walking all day again.
The last 8 km is straight downhill. Dropping 450 meters. Had to stop the
bike several times to let the rims cool.
We have now started the decent from the central masif into the Lot valley.
From the high point a descent of 1000 plus meters.
Starting to know a number of the individuals and groups on the path. Easy to
catch up and share stories and bring others into the multilingual
conversations.
Landscape is impressive with flowers and grass and Aubrac cows as well as
wonderful stone walls.
My Clic glasses, bicycle rear view mirror and folding bike are generally not
know in this area. The iPad is a favorite of the next generation. I let
them play with and their parents are delighted.
