Bike Touring 2:57:38 [2] 38.5 km (4:37 / km) +224m 4:29 / km
Day 3 starting out wo fog but nice temps and sunshine. Easy riding along the canal, today w lots of locks and watched several times how water was let down or was filled up to let boats pass.
At end passed 3 locks which ended up on a very long bridge which spanned over the Caronne underneath. Such a marvel to see ships pass on a bridge over a river below!
Pretty and surprisingly interesting city of Agen.

2nd day along the canal de caronne. Started in fog on our beautiful b&b in the Bordeaux vineyards down to la réole and crossing the magnificent river caronne over to the canal w locks. Riding in the mist under thousands of sycamore trees lining the canal was a mystical experience. After a Picknick lunch on a touristy side trip to see a church (UNESCO historic site), the sun was out. Beautiful riding until damazan where we rode around quite a bit to find our gite at 6:30. Tires by then.

Running 46:09 [3] 5.71 km (8:05 / km) +24m 7:55 / km
A quick run close to home up on Planeyse and 2x1 k on the woodchip track. Gorgeous day with a great view of all of the Swiss Alps again.
Still not up to par with my health, sore throat now.
But packing my bike to head off to Bordeaux tomorrow and on Friday start riding the Canal des 2 mers along the Garonne to Toulouse.

Running 52:10 [3] 5.34 km (9:46 / km) +153m 8:33 / km
Going into the 3rd week of this cold/flu crud. Felt better today, still the lungs would not give the output yet as they usually do so effortlessly. Was 1-2 min/km slower than normal. Patience. It will come back.
(Sandra and her family were sick on and off for 4 weeks, and Sandra spent last week pretty much in bed, so now they are on vaca in the beautiful Engadine, and we're also on grandparents' vacation for this week ;-)).
