Day 15; serious bike riding

Day 15; a serious day on the bike. 125km





After le dejeuner sucré we said goodbye to the B@B owner and went straight to the Boulanger and Fromagerie. We are back in the North and you can no longer rely on finding shops open. 

Komoot was having a very poor day, sent us several times over gravel or even worse than that.





Still, we were making good progress and at the battlefields of Crecy ( 60Km) there was a bar open and we had a sandwich. After the lunch the terrain got more challenging and the wind was starting to be frontal and strong again.

We managed to keep the pace and after 125 km we were in Boulogne-sur-Mer at 17.00. We just had time to shower and change to normal clothes and went to the Gare to pick up the kids who were paying us a visit this weekend.

As the corona delta virus is making a return the corona rules for entering France have just become tighter. Erin, whose vaccination is not protecting her yet, had to be able to show a negative PCR test on entering the train in Bruxelles. She had the test yesterday taken by a PCR test provider with an questionable reputation. Just minutes before entering the TGV at Bruxelles midi her results arrived negative.



In the evening we went for a very nice meal at the Swan, all fish/seafood and very very French.
