Day 5: Villeneuve L’Archeveque to Vezelay

Just 70 miles / 110 km covered today, but I had been keen to set off early because the route to Vezelay involves a long hard climb and as with Villeneuve L’Archeveque I had gambled by booking a hotel since Vezelay is a key destination for pilgrims making their way to Santiago de Compostella and therefore accommodation is always in very short supply. Consequently I didn’t take too many pictures but those I did are available here. With the climb at the end I arrived at 8.30om this evening, but thankfully not too late for dinner :-)

I did however manage a few seconds of video of the old watermill where I spent the night.

And also of the seemingly never-ending fields of sunflowers that I cycled past.
