October 1, 2019 – Departed 9:10 – Arrived 15:00
An easy stage, mostly through forests, on nice paths with very few difficulties. The geography has changed again, where I am now is mostly forest-covered hills, as far as one can see. This morning as I was leaving the Refuge I could hear forestry workers nearby, falling trees with their chainsaws.
I also went through a few pretty villages, but contrary to my previous days I didn’t play tourist today, as there were no landmarks to visit. Instead I arrived in Juzet d’Izaut early, before the weather turned nasty (it is now pouring, and the forecast is for more rain tomorrow). This will let me have a quiet end of afternoon, and do a bit of reading (I managed to finish Dostoievski’s Crime and Punishment and went through Shaw’s Pygmalion while in Lourdes. At the moment it’s An Ideal Husband, by Oscar Wilde).
