Thursday 14th October 2010

After breakfast (fresh bread and croissants delivered to reception), we did some chores i.e. sat in the sun whilst the washing machine did its job! Then set off for a bike ride, followed a route our dutch neighbours had given us, along tracks and lanes back to the town with two names! On entry the signs on each side of the road spell it differently, Millars or Millas! Too much wine for the sign writer at lunch time?
We had a great cycle around the town, had lunch by a ford, where the water was rushing past having come off the mountains. The big kid amongst us played “Pooh Sticks”, I’ll give you a clue it wasn’t me or Sarah! Rode home past some lakes and a large ford spanning a river which was blocked by trees etc and had a JCB digger very gingerly making its way out to the middle to try and clear it, not for the faint hearted. The views were great and the mountains in the distance had snow on the top of them.
