Had generally a cloud-covered day to trek the 23+ km (14.4 mi) and started down the Camino waymarkered path until I took a spill among logs and branches strewn across the path. Then I came up to a blockage I couldn't pass. So I backtracked and made sure to stay on small paved roads.
The day wasn't going well until I found a great place to have lunch. It was in the town of Sainte-Catherine-de-Fierbois on the St Joan of Arc Plaza and ironically a young fellow sitting several tables away ended up being my roommate at a small "albuerge" I arranged to stay at through the Office de Tourisme. They also got me a reservation for tomorrow night. All good signs.
My roommate brought to my attention that the town we're staying in, Sainte-Maure de Touraine, is very famous for its goat cheese by the same name. But we're over a mile from town and I may not feel up to going into town for some of that good cheese.
