Monday 1st July- The sun is shining

We took all the D roads down to Perigeaux and this took about ninety minutes as we were a little worried about one town near the site where the truck route is pretty much like the car route but just avoiding one corner.
Once we reached Perigeaux we joined the motorway East and joined the motorway South near Brive and at about 2.45 we arrived at Larnagol.
We checked out the pitch we had booked and then got everything set up in the heat, it was about 29 degrees centigrade and we even got the awning up after losing buckets of sweat. Then we discovered the power problem, the powered site connection kept breaking and after lots of fiddling we lit the gas heater instead of using the electric, and let’s sort it tomorrow.
We were both a little tired and then decided to test the snacks in the bar area which were great.
We were both so tired that sleeping was a little challenging plus the fact it was a good ten degrees warmer than we had experienced elsewhere.
