Sunday June 2 Sun + Clouds with strong wind
Aumont-Aubrac to Nasbinals 26.5km
6:40 woke up by the aroma from the bakery next door.
had breakfast with the family
8:00 grocery shopping for tonight. the baguette from bakery was still warm.
8:30 the family sang a song before start walking.
started with family but start to separate in distance soon after. I thought I would walk with them for a while so i took a break here and there but they didn't catch up with me.
10:30 snacking on the rock. It's a nice day for a walk but wind is too strong and that makes me feel really cold. Can't stop more than 10 minutes. have to keep on walking.
12:30 found another spot for lunching. a cereal baguette and peanuts. they taste exactly like a peanut butter sandwich!
14:30 took a coffee break at the cafe in the village 4km before the destination. Met a couple I have been seeing everyday. I still don't know their name. they said they took wrong way and had to walk quite a while back to GR65.
just before 16:00 arrived at Nasbinals.
Had a pot of tea around the corner did a bit of Internet. Store is open only for a couple of hours so I got a tomato & red wine.
share with a German man doing his camino from his home on the bicycle and one couple.
The couple told me about a local cuisine, Aligot. It sounds so yummy but I already have some food for tonight..
So I eat my experimental cuisine. Left over baguette with leek with mashroom sauce.
Spaguetties & pastas are the most popular backpackers' food. They are all eating pastas. Those french though, they eat cheese and dessert afterwards always.
There are many people walking on camino. a local French woman I met told me that she did camino 10 years ago but very little people along camino. Now hundreds of them are on the camino. some walk for religious reason and stay in gite and eat as simple as possible. some stay at nice hotels. some on tight budget, some do camp.
I got suntan on my face today! I should put sunscreen tomorrow.
a lady in our room is pretty sick. I hope she will get better..
