Bonjour

Had the inspiration to head up to the main house on the farm we are staying on and sitting in their garden using their internet. Kelly been for a run and her and Alana been in the pool at 9am in the morning. Carl, Malcolm and Jonathan (coach) had an early seeion at Pau naturel course. Everyone paddling at midday before we drive to Seu.
Session last night in St Pe, all went except Alana who had not had a rest session. Kelly did C1 until we fix her boat in Seu tommorrow. I stayed behind and cooked roast pork, apple sauce, gravy the lot with bread and butter pudding with choc chunks and 'past their use by date'  nectarines sandwiched between - good experiment and used up stale french stick, and went down really well with icecream. Think everyone preferred to the French experience the night before and were pretty happy when they walked in from the river at 9pm.
As I sit in the garden there are Shetland ponies walking around as pets and one is beside me munching hydrangeas from a tub by the front door- tres cute!
Demos at Seu at 6pm and opening ceremony at 8pm so hope to get there to give the team a taste of the big race experience. The GPS says a 4 hour drive so another adventure for the troops.  have to get going to clean our gite before we leave- to save 75 euros  so is worth it.
