Day 3 - Le Jalonne
Shadowing. Far far far too far with too many prickles, one child bounding ahead and the other like Dobbin - the horse that wouldn't go! Hot and bothered and I wish I hadn't.

Day 3 - les Rocs de Louradou
Well you can keep your Rocs de Louradou, they drove me into such a delirious state that I couldn't orienteer to save myself. At one point I couldn't find anything to relocate on and I was really lost and so was Rona when she ran up beside me, she ran off and found her control but I had to go further into the abyss to get to my control, a very kind man showed me where I was at his control and I stood there for ages staring at the map and how it related to where I was, wondering how to get to where I wanted to be and work out how to get out of the maze of rock and grot. I guess I was affected by the heat and despite drinking loads, perhaps wasn't enough.
