Drive in the France Countryside

Off to the Southwest down the A-10 route we drove toward the town of Saumur. This time its holiday time in France and the road is packed with campers and cars loaded to the brim with camping equipment. The wildflowers are still blooming on the sides of the road and the high today is to be about 70 degrees.

Lots of sunflower fields. The flowers all face one direction - that is the direction in which the sun shines on the them most of the day. The two-story McDonald along the way is packed with cars. They do a good business here. Returned home about 9pm to enjoy left overs and Saumur Brute (a champagne, but they can’t call it that because it doesn’t come from the “champagne” part of the country).
