The sunset last night and sunrise this morning were pleasant, but not spectacular.
We didn't see our nice pig farmer this morning to bid him farewell, as we could hear his tractor some way away.
We drove into Alès and went for a walk. It is pleasant, but not very photogenic, as most of the old city was razed and rebuilt in the 1960s,with predictable results! The Cathedral is lovely, though,
as was the cup of coffee we fortified ourselves with before returning to the WoMo and heading on towards Mende.
It was mostly a lovely drive, very scenic, if a bit sick-making. We managed to get diesel, which was a relief, and hope we will find some more but might just make it without.
Shortly before we arrived, the heavens opened and there was a terrific hailstorm! This aire is a bit out of Mende, by the aerodrome, but we were not sure whether the town would be worth seeing except the Cathedral, which looked formidable!
