Lovely meal out last night, no pics as it was too dark for phone photography. The restaurant we were going to eat at was closed, the second choice looked deserted and a woman was pulling a wheelbarrow inside as we went passed- not a good sign we felt. We found a lovely restaurant that filled up quickly. I had the most delicious chocolate pudding- hot, very light, and with a melting chocolate centre - mmmm.
We are now waiting for our taxi to Avignon TGV station for a day of trains.
Picture is the view from our window.

Day 7 Apt to Cavaillon
Last day of summer cycling.
We set off early as the forecast is for strong winds again today- its obviously always windy in Cavaillon. Cycled through Bonnieux, Lacoste (good coffee stop), Menerbes (picnic lunch ), Oppede (lovely!). Now back in Cavaillon, bikes packed in bags, taxi booked to station as the cycle ride there is a little scary! Looking forward to a relaxed dinner now.

Day 6 continued
Today we did a circular route taking in Roussillon which is very picturesque, but full of tourists, and St-Saturnin-les-Apt where we had a very tasty lunch and visited a ruined chateau on top of the hill.

Day 5 continued
The day in pictures. The dried river bed was amazing. Lovely dinner too with live rhythm and blues singer. Great comedy moment when her three year old son arrived being towed around by a small dog. Also quite entertaining that I had to walk through the band to reach the loos, and the singer points the way as part of her performance!

Day 5 Reillanne to Apt
It looks like an easier day today- only 20 miles if we follow my route. However, my route yesterday sent us across every rough track it could find, avoiding Tarmac whenever possible. We did an extra 6 miles to avoid my route and followed the Velos signposting.
