Day 80 – Aurillac to Ally

Friday July 22, 2011, 50 km (31 miles) – Total so far: 2,906 km (1,806 miles)

It was a pretty uneventful cycling day. We were glad we stopped the night at Aurillac as there were no hotels on the route today.

Luckily we found a 1 star hotel after 51 kms. It was 40 euros for accommodation, but the room was one of the worst we have stayed in. There was no way I was going to be fussy though. There was no way we were going to camp in this dodgy weather.

On the positive side though, we had one of the best meals of the trip. They had a set menu of 20 euros. I had salad to start, omelet, lamb, cheese then desert (mousse I think).
