June 12
The flat roads I had previous days is now histori.  Now the climbs begin and the weather still hot .Some shorts break for water refilling and picking cherries .Lot of crops with those berries after the road.

Wild cherries or sweet cherries grew along the roads and were welcome to pick.

 

Later in the afternoon, I arrived in a small village, Villes-sur-Auzon, but it seemed deserted—no shops or cafés were open.
Maybe everyone was just indoors having dinner. On my way out, I stopped when I saw a water pump by the roadside.
I felt like I needed to cool down.

Cooling – Nice

Real nice and and very necessary. From now upwards,  11 km has my GPS calculated with to my tentplace.

Before I got there some friendly Frenchmen stopped me and offered me some bottles of beer, and I didn’t deny them.

Half way up to Les Abielles two friendy french guys stoped me and offered me some beer

After this nice meeting and break I was ready for may last struggle this afternoon.  At the top this climbing an old church with perfect green spot close to beome my tentplace… Notre Dame de la Consolation was the name of this church.

This day stoped at Les Abielles and Notre Dame de la Consolation chapelle

Tomorrow more climbing up to Sault and then I’ve planned to reach  Châteauneuf-de-Chabre!
