Sept 6th sisteron to cabans 40km

Stayed in campsite , a bit weird. We paid a guy who really could have been anyone :/ but actually was a me member of the staff. We then laid by the pool but even though we had 4 pools all to ourselves it was a bit of a dubbed cemetery with a view ha ha.

Sept 5th velonne to sisteron

Only 12km today as Dave appears to have done some damage to his right side batting flies and wasps.He wondered if he had broken a rib which I questioned but if you have ever seen him batting away flies could be done. But he doesn't have a problem with breathing in so think just muscular. Stayed in campsite with pool but as we made our way over it was closed!!! Irritating but it is obviously the end of the season as far as the French feel even though still like height of summer as far as us Brits go. Sisteron obviously very important town historically quite grand. Dave did a painting I just did my usual book reading.

September 4th Forcalquier to Velonne 46km

Easy cycle along the valley to Velonne where 4 star campsite only option. nervously we awaited the price 13 euro!!!!!! Loving this off season pricing. Amazing campsite with brilliant pools, slides and even toilet paper. Hard to equate with the price but really nice. Small domestic in the day (chickengate) warranted a few beers in the very nice bar to debrief (always a silver lining to everything).

felt like we were in Arizona, Les Mees on way to Velonne
