La Garde-Adhemar to Saint-Etienne-des-Sortes.
Today I feel drained. 12 mtr per second wind with gusts up to 15 mtr/s creates a bit of havoc on the Rhone. Anyway, hated getting out of the tent. It was very cosy. Actually.
What a great location. Shaded from evening sun, greeted warmly by the morning sunrise
Always room for a guest even though it is green.
First boat lock was a combined lock and power station. Quite a walk around it, but google maps showed a route and I went for it.
Gotta walk
On the other side the wind is still blowing. I waited four hours. It died down somewhat and a kayaked a bit further before it began to pick up again.
One baguette again from yesterday's donation.
I paddled to Mornas. Short of water, I located a grocery store and started walking.
Beautiful countryside, though hard to see from a kayak. But when I get out of The Rhone, I think it is time for a long drive through this great nation.
Countryside is extremely fertile.
It was a 3 km walk. Nice houses, typical France and lots of sunflowers. Ate a couple of figs on the way.
Ready to get yellow in a week or so.
Tucked in and ready to sleep. Tent is 2 meters from the Rhone. Waves slapping the shoreline. Should be soothing.
Sleeping on a slope. Hope I don't roll into the Rhone.
