Stopped for first big supermarket shop at Beaune before joining the A6 Autoroute to bypass Lyon and make some miles due south. After gloroius weather earlier it was starting to become overcast with some drizzle by the evening. Having averaged over 200 miles per day for the last 4 days we decided to have a rest day and stop two nights to avoid the expected busy traffic on Saturday. Found a nice site in the Ardeche on the side of the Isieux valley - after taking a wrong turn and going 4km up a 1 in 8 hill with no way to turn round. Good van test. The site in the ACSI book has only us and 3 other Dutch caravans and has just opened for the season, so a lot of clearing up winter ravages. It would be a lovely site when in full swing with very friendly owners. The nearby village of St Laurant de Pape is a nice strole away and has a boulangerie and chacuterie for Rosemary to drool over. Its me off down to get the fresh croisants on Sunday morning then its off to Provence on the A7/A8 autoroute to complete 1000miles and the first leg. Expecting to find a site with WiFi to make my first post.
