Phew! We have just about caught up with ourselves. We are where we are supposed to be and it feels very good indeed.

I have heaps of pictures of unknown flowers so I’ll stop adding then now.

Our stroll today was an afternoon and evening affair. We found the conditions rather hot and humid and quickly needed to refresh ourselves. What a stroke of luck that Rolanpont was open for business.

Once again the stroll was enjoyable but uneventful. Yesterday two people on bicycles passed us. Today these same two people passed us on their bicycles.  At the next lock they were waiting for us as well as resting from their labours. After an entertaining chat they were off once again, soon to disappear around the next bend in the canal

Today’s (or yesterday’s really) blog is particularly short and dull as we had to do some intense research in order to find accommodation for the next few days. At around midnight we have found a riding school bunkhouse followed by something else. So that’s it for today.

    “Unknown flower number 1” could be a Common Toadflax. My trusty tome has yet to reveal the identity of “Unknown flower number 2”, but I’m on the case! Hope the search for comfortable accommodation proves successful. Sleep well, Royce.

    Glad to see you have caught up with yourselves! An achievement I haven’t been able to match! Heigh ho! Really enjoying your adventures; mundane here by comparison, another Blue Moon gig has taken place, tonight we had a ukelele player sitting in. A first! Aileen
