Besancon, France

After a lovely breakfast at the hotel and goodbyes to our team mates, we settled back in the motorhome and drove off. As we went down the mountain and through all the major hairpin bends, Noel reminisced about the hillclimb.

By the time we had done the 10k to Ollon, smoke was pouring out of he brakes and we had to pull over. Then drove off gently to get air through them.

We were pleased to be back on the flat and then the lovely motorways.

Through border security without stopping. They were busy searching some other cars! Then the beautiful drive to Besancon.

By the time we arrived it was 3pm and 36 degrees.  We were very hot and exhausted. Our SATNAV took us the wrong way through a very narrow part of town. We almost got stuck. Grateful once again to have my phone, which got us back to where we needed to go and our campsite.

A shame we had no time or energy to look around, as the old city looks really interesting. However, lots of washing to do and we want to leave early tomorrow.
