I had a very good nights rest. This night there was a Thunderstorm and some rain, but still not the expected amount. In the morning it’s still very clouded but dry with a little wind.and not too cold. Perfect weather for a walk. I started at a quarter to eight. Nice quiet country roads. On the road I meet again a Dutch couple on bikes who are doing the Camino in parts. We chat a while without stopping. Then we parted again. Although the sun has tried to break through at times, I had some drizzles too. At Saint Catharine I had some coffee and get a stamp from the Mairie. There has been a hospital for pelgrims here founded in 1415. Amazing how you feel connected to all those who have preceded you. After Saint Catherine it starts raining. It’s a long time ago that I had rain and certainly not as much as this. I had to to put on my rain clothes and very fast too. At quarter to one I walked in Saint Maure de Touraine. The mairie is closed until half past one. So I visited the church first. Afterwards I had a beer and a very nice talk with the waitress. Then to the Mairie and the touristoffice. I’VE come to sleep in a special pelgrims gasthouse. Just 4 places. Here I meet my first fellowpelgrim at feet. He is called Nico ?. He is from Bretagne. We drink a beer and share our feelings about the road and what does to you. For him I am also the first other pilgrim. He doesn’t stay here overnight, but goes on. I’m going to prepare my food for tonight and then sleep.

Niko, fantastisch nu met de foto’s erbij.
Als je later oud bent kun je altijd nog zeggen “gelukkig hebben we de foto’s nog…”.
Hoi Jon, mijn hart gaat naar jullie uit. Ik straal mijn warmte naar Roeliens moeder. Anja heeft misschien een smartphone over ik heb gevraagd of ze die naar je toe wil sturen, maar of ze dat doet weet ik natuurlijk niet. Hugs
