Afte 2 days of wildcamping, todays plan is to find a paid canping site, inportant is to charge our battery and have hot shower and wash up. It has been hot here in the day but cold at the night and early morning. As we head slowly to the south, it will be hotter and of course more hills are waiting for us. The terrain so far is flats with lots of rolling hills, some are very steep as 12% in gradient. The French locals are so far very friendly and we had never once turn down whenever we need help, eventhough they speak very little English or sometimes non at all, but anyhow we understand by body and hand languages. When we arrived in Nitry by 2.30pm, we were disappointed at the only campsite is closed ,most probably abandoned due to lack of business, so left with no choice with a very tired,exhaushted conditions, we checked in the hotel for 51 euro with only 2 beds , so i had to sleep on the floor with my sleeping bag. We quietly cooked our dinner at the back of the hotel as the lady owner say is not allowed.
