8 avril. Étape 7. Départ Condac (16) direction St Sornin (16) : 50 km
Départ du jour, étape touristique de 50 km en Charente , la crème solaire est de circonstance 😉
Today was supposed to be à "resting stage" of less than 50 km across the Charente. But immediatly after departure I got a problem with my trailer and the axle of my rear wheel. I discovered it was twisted but I cannot explained how it happened.
Anyway I repaired it, and we carried on straight to Verteuil sur Charente and its castle, where François de La Rochefoucauld wrote his Maxims and Memories around 1650.
Then the tranquility of the countryside until we reached La Rochefoucauld and its castle. Today, this castle still belongs to the La Rochefoucauld family after more than 1000 years. Yes, amaizing but true.
After taking a few pictures of the castle and the Tardoire river below the castle,
Moulin de Virteuil
we carried on to St Sornin where my children grand parents were waiting for dinner.
