Herauic days


After a disturbed night thanks to the party close to the camping and the mosquito killing lights, a huge rain shower awakens us in the morning. Thanks to the wind, blue sky is back shortly.

For this day, we follow a path to Saint-Jacques, overtaking several pilgrim groups. But the canal's path is still too rough, pushing us to some quiet roads.

And the wind, again and always there, coming with strength from the west, bringing winery smells and drying our skin. We feel like some don quichote charging hopelessly a mighty wind dragon, not the best way to enter in the Hérault county.


But by calling a cousin of Vinciane in Montpellier, our moral is boosted by the possibility to sleep under a roof, sheltered from the wind. Moreover, we come to know each other a bit more and have a nice time around some pizzas and showing our photos.

The next day, we leave Anne-Cécile and proceed down, then up, then down and so on to Montpellier.

Anne-Cécile, thank you !
Yes, the area isn't very flat. We ride through the centre quickly on its cycle ways, as we'll probably come back another time.


But we turn before reaching the sea ! The path along the Rhône-Sète canal is muche better ... and also windier !


We finally make it to Sète, our hair completely messed up by the fierce wind !


Now it's time to comfort ourselves.


We are welcomed by Florence and Erwan, by the now well known principle of warmshower and have a nice evening with the whole family.
