Thursday 18th April. Gennes to Chinon. 64km.
\
A better day today with the sun shining and a nice tailwind all day. We came across a small village called Parnay, which has been built into a limestone cliff where some of the houses are half house/half cave. I heard a real cuckoo bird call today. At first I thought that it was a cuckoo clock, because we were passing some houses, but the I heard it again 10 minutes later when we were riding through forest. It sounds just like a cuckoo clock. The French people have been remarkably friendly everywhere we go.
The huge Chateau at Saumur was very impressive.
Stayed at Hotel Au Sans Souci (Hotel of no worries)
Route: Gennes - St. Hilaire - Saumur - Parnay - Savigny en Veron - Chino.
