June 28, France

So, now we´re crossing France. I have to get to Franfurt by July 3 to turn over my bike and Anamaria has to get to Geneva by July 1. We´re going to travel together to Geneva. Today we just drove, with a couple of rest breaks. We´re not making a lot of distance but it takes us a while to get anywhere. We stopped at one town with intentions of staying in the municipal campground, but after looking all over for it we found it was closed. Continuing on we just looked for a sign indicating a campground along the road. We saw one and turned off and the road wound back the way we had come for what seemed like a long time. But finally we found the place which was right on the side of an old boat canal that follows the river Garonne. There were three boats tied up there, two of them from England. And next to us in the campground was a couple from France who were making a bike trip along the canal and were going to meet up with a couple from Canada the next day. All of us had dinner together in the little restaurant at the campground.
