Extigy Windows 7 Installation

ARDECHE ... AIGUEZE


On Friday afternoon, the sun was again installed in the late morning, the gorges of Ardeche are scheduled as expected.
To do this, the meal had been brought forward to 12:00, then finally postponed at the usual time 12:30, okay.

A half hour later, everyone is ready.
The walkers will leave, of course, by car, but also cyclists.
Indeed, the journey from VOGUE is considered too long, so you have to go to Vallon-Pont d'Arc.

..............................

The bikes are in the coffers (or on the rack), drivers driving, attention at the start ...
A heavy downpour falling on us!

No! Can not be!
What we did to God!

It remains only to unload the bikes, dress in civilian clothes and come what may we will still visit these gorges, hoping that the weather we will take a few shots.

.................................

That one is on the tourist route to the Gorges of Ardeche.

Here is the program of festivities: 1.The
Pont d'Arc
lookout 2.The Greenhouse Tourre
3.The balcony Autridge
4.The balcony of the Cros Olivier
5.The balcony 6.The Gournier
balcony of the Cathedral
7.The lookout balcony 8.The
Templar Templar
9.The balcony of Maladrerie
10.The balcony of the Belvedere Rouvière
11.The Grand
12.The Lookout Ranc Sharp

Obviously, no stopping each of them (some are closed due to refurbishment), viewpoints closest offering the same view from a different angle.

............................

First stop at the Pont d'Arc, a stone arch 54 meters high and 59 m long, the only one in France over a river, still in operation.

As expected (we had studied the profile of cycling), a 2-km coast is presented.
bad, we would have made a good little climbing!

When we regretted not having tried the bike ride, a deluge, brief but very violent compels us to rush to the shelter!

Finally, it was good.

.............................

"Look, John Paul, you who has a great camera, stand there and take Bibi with the Ardeche in the background.
_ Yes Yes Do me a photo, if- you-please, "she whispers with her angelic voice!"
How could he resist? He gets up.
From then on, just shake the tree soaked in rain water in which it is located.
"Ah Cows! You had me right!"
Bibi who played his role perfectly, the Oscar for his perfidy was rightly awarded.
The saddest story is that the shot was missed.

............................

We arrive in ST-MARTIN-d'Ardèche, term of the famous gorge.
Wow! The suspension bridge!
It dates from 1905, measures 160 meters long and is a hyphen between the departments of Ardeche and Gard.

Indeed, when one crosses the bridge, change of department and we were back to AIGUEZE village "character", one of the most beautiful in France.
Above all, do not pass without stopping!
me who loves the old stones, mosaics, sculpture, architecture "Character", I was served!

Moreover, the circular path, strongly crenate, dominates the landscape and offers an exceptional view of the river, yet we have had ample opportunity to admire this afternoon.

...............................

reour For, as I had expected, the GPS lady invites us to go through ORGNAC-l'Aven, in km shorter route but longer time (many turns), a road "bicycle" in short.
It ignores his instructions!

BARJAC, Vagner, SALAVAS, Vallon-Pont d'Arc.
Instead of going through RUOMS and D579, inadvertently we follow indication of our "Lady" and we find ourselves on the D1, a narrow road full of turns, SEVENIER, LAGORCE, Leyre and finally VOGUE

Despite hostile weather, we can not say we have wasted our time.

From now on, we must focus on tomorrow, which promises to be epic!

soon!
