Exploring the Loire Valley…
After we reached Etampes, we headed south on D-721, through Pithiviers (D-921) and past Orleans. From there we headed south-east along the Loire River to our final destination of Sancere for the first night. Here is one along a lake we passed as we headed for the valley.
We followed the valley for long distances mostly on the top of the river levee road. We passed two large nuclear facilities located on the river on the way. By the time we got to Sancere it was around 3:00 pm and we were both tired. We found the ETAP hotel and unloaded our stuff. Then we followed our trip plan of heading to a local petrol station that was attached to a super market and filled up our tanks. Next, we bought our ready-meals and beer and headed back to the hotel to settle in for the night. I think Rambo was playing on the TV so we went to sleep watching Rambo in French.
