St. Privat d’Allier to Sauges

Another day, another 12 miles, for a total of 27 miles to date. Today was stunningly beautiful! The countryside was spectacular, the weather was accommodating, and the food was, well a picnic!

Here are some shots of the countryside:

While difficult to see without expanding the image, the second bridge (the smaller one) was built by Gustaf Eiffel. Also, just moments before we took this picture several groups of rafters passed down the river.

On arrival into Sauges, we were greeted by this wooden carving of the Beast of Givaudan. The wolf was responsible (reportedly) for killing over 100 people during a three year period in the 1700’s. Bill actually remembers reading the story as a kid.  Well, here’s where it happened. 

Dinner and sleep await!  More tomorrow!
