We drove south all day but with numerous stops in search of food shops open on a Sunday - no luck. I bought a ham and cheese croissant that was delicious despite being heated in a microwave. 

 

The campsite on our itinerary was shut for the season so we pitched tents beside a beautiful lake. Everyone gathered wood for a campfire which was soon blazing. Lines of white geese flew through a vibrant red sunset as we kept warm. Very windy and cold away from the fire so we pulled our chairs closer as the flames died down. Wonderful night star gazing and getting smoke in my eyes. Already feels like we are somewhere more adventurous than France.
