Day 3 Laon to Eclaron

No photos today I'm afraid and not much to say apart from a nice Croque Madame in Reims

Tried different tactics. As there's much to do in the evening we decided to take it steady with lots of breaks. On the whole this worked except France becomes a ghost town at 3pm and we ran out of food and water. It seems le crisis has caused bars and shops to close down.  And not just for August.  Permanently.  So many of the towns which we cycled through were deserted.  Think tumbleweed blowing down the main street.
