Wednesday 24th April 2013. From Fourques sur Garonne to Moissac.
As the first rays of sunshine illuminate our tent, the bird tweets start tickling ours eardrums. Our couscious mind slowly regains control over our unconscious, and when we finally open our eyes, we wonder whether the sun or the birds is behind our waking.
We pack our stuff and, as promised, we ring Joseph and Marie’s doorbell so as to take the breakfast together. Good morning Joseph, good morning Marie! (Matteo is awake but staring at the cartoons on the TV) . We come inside and again we are surprised and touched by their generosity …
“I’ve made coffee and there’re also few croissants for you “
Coffee, croissant and the company of such nice persons … There is nothing better for breakfast! Energy for the body… and, even more, for the spirit!
We are about to leave when Leo realizes that the left side of his luggage rack is broken and the other side is about to break. We can not turn a blind eye on that, the smallest shock would completely break the rack and the wheel would simply be blocked. Fortunalty Joseph has more than one trick up his garage and he comes back with a solution. We insert thin metal rods into the framework and we are ready to ride again!
We can now get back on our way along the canal, but not before taking a picture of our savior !
We hope that you will like this picture, thank you Joseph !
