We had a bad night last night. John coughed continuously and Angela's throat was really painful. This morning she'd almost lost her voice. A plus some might say. At the appointed time of 11am we were at the bike shop. Repair complete within the hour, and us nearly fifty euros lighter. But the money had to be spent for us to continue our trip. John seemed a little better, Angela worse, finding the cycling up gradients too much sometimes, having to dismount and walk.
We were hoping to cycle across to the coast for tonight's stop but by the time we reached Coutances Angela could cycle no further. So we found the town campsite, where we stayed once before when cycling in the area. We pitched our tent opposite a Dutch campervan far away from a group of school children here on a football course. The noise from teenage children is really annoying, we hoped the organisers would settle them down early.
