Day 17: from Orleans to Blois - on the EV6

Cloudless skies in Orleans - at 7:30 a.m.!

> First of all, old country: lots and lots of fruit plantations and vegetable gardens

> West wind from the front all day, around force 5

> Long stretches of pure nature.

Just like at home!

Only the castles 🏰 in between and the baguette were different.
