[QUOTE="roving_rufus, post: 1148569, member: 21017"] Day 5 Vilde to Fourchaud/Bourneau 30km I set tent up and thought I will lie down for 10 minutes then I will shower, eat etc. Well 11.30pm I woke up and went straight back to sleep... I will just smell! Just got tent packed up before the rain started this morning. I could have stayed in bed too! But it meant I had to walk in the rain 🌧. Today's marked route is inspired by a GR with a few tweaks - but is started with a lot of road, but actually had lots of paths, lanes and tracks today. One section of wood for about an hour was a brightener for the day and it stopped raining in the woods long enough for me to enjoy a "coffee break" at a picnic table - no coffee as couldn't use my stove in such a wood (is it sad to say that I excited that the next three days a bar should provide coffee after 2 hours of walking) And as today was inspired by the GR it avoided two villages - I veered into one as it wasn't really a detour Saint Lawrence de la Salle - lovely village with toilets and water, and lovely church, and even a special bench for pilgrims, and got credential stamped in the mairie (I think there might even be a pilgrim gite here from what she said). I didn't go to the other but it does have a bar. But onwards... I wanted to make progress when the rain had stopped. Unfortunately 20 minutes later ...rain. It became a heads down let's get on with it day. Found at sports ground outside Borneau a nice covered area and finally sat down in the dry and ate my lunch. Then headed into village- it has one of the chateaus featured in Chateau DIY in case you are a fan.. but the local bar and bakery are all closed down. Just a last 2km to my destination in Fourchaud... and to hosts who welcome pilgrims - this is really common in France and local associations work hard to create lists of such people who will let pilgrims stay a night and maybe feed them dinner too- for less travelled routes these lists are a lifesaver!
