From Etaples towards Dieppe

We could teach the French a thing or two about camping ground sanitary facilities. Hot water is frequently not available and the showers tepid
Making our way down the coast, mixed hill, flat and the odd cycle lane. Roads a bit dicey without shoulders but drivers are certainly more courteous to cyclists than us Kiwis are!
Passed through the Bay of Somme and the main town St Valery du Somme. Everywhere there are war cemeteries. Today through coastal town of Treport with massive white cliffs above the sea, hence more uphill riding.
Massive rain storm and wind about 5mins after we put up the tent. Continued for 5 hours, good old MSR tent
