It was still very hot and sunny. We cycled east along the Canal du Nivernais, passing Champvert on
the way.
We saw some large water voles, but weren't quick enough to get a photograph. We went as far as Cercy-La-Tour, where
we stopped for lunch - crackers, brie and dried pork sausage.
We had a walk round the town, and came a cross the mayor speaking and holding a minute's silence for the Nice terrorist attack on Bastille Day.
We strolled round a bit more, there is a spectacular white statue of Mary dominating the highest point.
We
then cycled back, with lots of stops for shade on the way. At one point we saw a red
kite over the canal.
Back in Decize we went into Lidl for some barbecue
food. At the campsite we saw a beaver swimming in
the river. Later at sunset we saw bats flying about.
We had our
barbecue, sausages, steak haché and vegetable skewers.
