Monday

Today I did very little of interest. I walked a long way round to a place for breakfast,  a different long way back to my apartment,  swept the floor, hung the washing out, read, planned my route for tomorrow.
Another word. Navette. If I was asked what that means I would immediately guess   a small boat. Not so. It is a shuttle bus. To continue another theme, a navette spatiale is a spaceship, according to my dictionary.

So tomorrow I will be catching a tram, walking a bit, catching a navette,  (the tram system is disrupted with some stations offline. Building works, not strikes)  then a bus to a town along the coast called Le Grau de Roi. Then i have to find some food, then someone from the tour company will, hopefully,  meet me at the bus stop, then i do a tour of the Camargue in a safari sort of truck. Hopefully in English. It was quite hard to find a tour who would accept a booking of 1 person. As if it's not hard enough!

Another advantage of my new App . A few days ago I saw a nice cafe in an out of the way place, a sort of bend in a car-less road ( too narrow) . I could not remember exactly where it was.  So today I brought up the route I had taken and followed it in reverse. An excllent lunch with an excellent view of the passing people . I was very strong and passed on dessert. From when I left here to when I got back was 3 hours. A long lunch.
