Well – so much for the fillet steak and French beef being the best in the world!!! Woken at 5.30am by Tony being very ill in the toilet. Fetched Imodium from the Pharmacie at 9.00 and he felt “safe enough” to continue the journey by about 10.30. Got to Vendome by about 11.45 and found a hotel, Le St. Georges. A bit expensive at €89 but it does have a kitchenette in the room. Tony was very sick in the afternoon and has spent most of the time either on the toilet or in bed. I am dining on a bag of crisps tonight and he will have a few sips of bottled water. We are hoping he will feel better tomorrow as Vendome looks a very nice place and there is a market every Friday. Have arranged to stay here tomorrow night as well.
Vendome – 13 May 2011
Both slept OK without any disturbances for the loo. Tony managed a piece of bread and jam for breakfast. Both went to launderette and then pharmacie for rehydration sachets – got some but on reading instructions they are for small children – I’m sure they will work just the same. Went for a walk around town on my own as Tony has no energy. Took some nice pics. T felt a bit better later so we had a stroll but he flagged after about 15 mins. Back to Hotel. Blois tomorrow hopefully with something more interesting to report.
