=> english on tour, not good, really not, not better even on antibiotic <= Every meter was hard fought today. That's how it felt to me. In the morning I had to wait until the pharmacy was open, then I found out that the antibiotic was not available in France. Phone oh yes replacement product, then found that the prescribed painkillers are the variety elephant killer, so we stay with Ibu and to all misfortune have Mondays most bakeries closed, so here also first look for one. That dragged on and then off. The good? It was not as warm as yesterday, but that was already the only good thing. Although, at 40 degrees yesterday, I came better ahead, today I had at lunchtime just 50 km. But it was also a crappy headwind in addition the whole day. Oh today did not run, mimimi, was then quite grateful to be in Orléans and make a little sight seeing. From Gein to Orléans it was actually 4 hours of driving, I should have slipped through yesterday with tailwind.... Would have had bicycle chain (is still on it). Anyway, after Orléans further along the Loire, every step hurt. So at some point then times gone shopping, in Lidl, and subsequently times looked around for campsites. One in 20 km or the one you are just passing, the one on the water. The decision was quick. Now I sit here at the water, once again many insects, as at the beginning of the trip, does not bother me. Honestly the first two days were my arms at the end of the day littered with dead insects on sunscreen, then hardly more. Is then but also intensive agriculture after the Moselle nature reserve. Okay where was I, oh yes insects tonight here on the shore I sit and wait for the sunset soon, in this sense
