6 July Corsept to Guenrouet

A good nights sleep and good breakfast at the Chambre d'Hote. It was raining when we got up and still raining when we left. All togged up in waterproofs. Luckily by the time we got to St.Brevin-Le-Pins the rain had stopped, we had plenty of time for Photos at a sign for the end of the Loire a Velo. So that is the end of the big stage one. Now we have to plan a route to St. Malo, a mere 130 ish miles.
Ready for last day on Loire before we turn north.
 All the time behind us was this massive bridge, it seemed to rise very high and appeared very long. We eventually started and although the traffic noise was awful, there was almost no lorries and the traffic was not that heavy going north. The idea to choose Sunday worked well.
John P chose a route that took us up to the Nantes-Brest Canal at Guenrouet. Very little traffic and well on our way. After a long day yesterday, the excitement of finishing the Loire, a trip planned for 2 years ago and postponed, and the nerves of the St. Nazaire Bridge we decided to stop at camping St. Clair.
