Day 30 - Special moments (Uzan à Argagnon 22 km)
We had an earlier start than normal this morning and the weather cooperated with us for the entire travel portion of the day. While the scenery was pretty much the same as the previous days, it never gets boring nor do we tire of it. It remains amazing!
One of the highlights of my day was meeting an elderly gentleman on a quiet country road. I started up a conversation with him and found out that he used to be the owner of the farm we were standing in front of - the one with the beautiful cows. One of his two sons now ran the farm, one daughter ran an épicerie and the other worked in the chapel. He told me how many cows they owned, where they were located, and what they were used for. The entire conversation was in French and we both understood each other. I loved this moment as he seemed so content with life, he was in no rush, and he loved to chat. This is the France I love. It was certainly a very special event for me. I got my selfie and Ankemaria snapped a picture of us as she approached.
Our gîte is an old farm house however we all decided to stay in our own personal roulotte, a mini trailer. What a special treat for all of us. There will be no complaints about snoring tonight!
Dinner was great as always with for countries at the table. Our host Nicolas entertained us with his banjo sheet the meal. A fitting end to another wonderful day.
