Wednesday - got the hell out of Gignac earlyish after breakfast, then got detoured near some lake, and on a road winding up a mountain road that is about one car wide. Stopped at a semi abandoned village high up, Carlencas, then rolled back down onto a nearby red B road that is fast but still scenic.
(Carlencas, beautiful, sitting high on a gentle hill, could be nice)=>
<=(Olargues is beautiful, and on a long bike trail converted from a rail line. Didn't see anyone here in the village, but there was a decent sized school with plenty of students, and plenty of parents hanging around with cars to pick them up.)
Stopped at Olargues because of a bright red bridge that turns out to be part of a rail trail. A very nice town with character, but no place to eat.
<=(Looks like you're in someone's home, but seems that it is a public internal staircase.)
Made it to Premian for lunch next to the road.
<=(Premian, one of the endless villages of France that are beautiful, and I suppose cater more for the travellers.)
(Premian was a good lunch stop. Even nowhere is somewhere here.)=>
Keep rolling to hit Albi for a bit, then call up some places to stay, finding the chateau at Cordes sur Ciel. Bit of a long driving day today.
