Snail Tales Three pm, best hour of the day. Picked up bread and pastries at the perfect little boulangerie at St Clement des Levées this morning before heading to our night stop. The Aire at the place where we had intended to stay was full so we hit the Autoroute once more and landed here in La Séguinière. Not even close to being full but basking in full sunshine – doors open, t-shirts on. There is a little river with ducks and geese, a BBQ for the use of, picnic tables and a bar across the road. Not too shabby. Madame Escargot Mar 25, 2018 No Comments
