Getting lost on the way to new campsite in Faux-la-Montagne
Started at 10am but delayed at first by market day in St.Céré - would have liked to stop really - we didn’t know Wed. was market day. Took D940 Bretenoux, Tulle, where we got lost and had to retrace our steps - it was the Uzerche/Limoges route we needed! Stopped for a picnic, took a picture over the valley - other side of Seilhac. Super scenery on the way, very hilly and Z roads! Making for the Plateau de Mille Vaches - only seen half-a-dozen up to now - found a small campsite at Faux-la-Montagne, facilities new and good - site a bit sloping in parts and all the shady sites are taken up - going out for a meal tonight.
