Stage 6. La Bastide to Le Bleymard 31km

Frankly a killer day today, after a sad goodbye to birds and butterfly spice who caught the train back to the uk. We walked for 9 hours not including a couple of breaks.

The first part of the day was glorious, a long slow climb and we were face to face with windmills.

Then the inevitable downward path and we were rewarded with two medieval villages with the typical symmetrical stone houses, adorned with wooden shutters in an array of colours. The afternoon was tough, rain, wind fog, difficult terrain, but we made it.
