Getting into rhythm

After a blissful night in the hotel, we left Nantes on way to the Atlantic. Leaving the big city on bike took some navigation skills but we managed fine and late afternoon after 78km reached Saint Brévin less pins. An impressive bridge was the first sight when reaching our destination. We basically just slept over there and cycled another 75km the next day to St Gervais.On route we had a fabulous lunch break at Pornic, but after that the landscape became a bit boring... flats and oyster farms... We had to sleep over in St Gervais since we wanted to cross the La Gois which you can only do on low tide. Here we slept at the cleanest Camping Municipal in France. The proud lady caretaker is constantly cleaning and she does the management all by herself as well, she was really impressed with us as we were here first Saffers :)

Today we crossed the man made La Gois and cycled through an awesome National Park, pine trees next to the ocean - it made us think of mtb'ing in the cape so it became a bit of a race - the extra weight on the bikes actually seems to help with speed - momentum!!!! We did 42km today and now we are in St Jean de Monts which is a very touristy beach resort.
