Our secret to eating big lunches

Today, as we have often done here in France, we had a sizable lunch.

Grilled shrimp for Bori, cod and veggies with Aioli sauce for me

However, prior to sitting down to lunch, we spent 3 hours out cycling along the dike roads in the Camargue.  So, after three hours of cycling over 30 kilometers, in the sun, we likely burned more calories than we consumed.




We encountered small numbers of interesting ducks (i.e., a pair of common shelducks with 9 ducklings) and shorebirds (i.e., spotted redshank), lots of little egrets, and were close to quite a few flamingoes.

This is probably our last trip to the Mediterranean for this season, so we bid it adieu.
