Day 2 Hell then Heaven

Oh the joys of the Paris Peripherique! We were doing very well until we decided to divert from the route to find a Centre Commerciale with a supermarket (to buy some lunch) and most importantly - a loo. The loos we had found on the Aires en route had been so bad we had crossed our legs into granny knots - by the time we got to Chartres we were beyond caring. Whoever thought height limiters on car park entrances were a good idea? More on that later in the blog - much more! We eventually found a way into the car park and relief! Going off the route seemed like a good idea at the time, but we did eventually find our way to La Linetiere. When we got there any frustrations of the journey just fell away - it was idyllic, set in its own private garden at the end of a country lane, surrounded by fields.
