L'Auberson to Orbe - 22kms
Lovely peaceful walk today although the temperature rose to 30*C which was VERY HOT! During the morning we had another long climb to Col des Etroits 1135m. Here you can see the anti-tank defences known here as the Toblerones! After that we meandered through fields and woodland. Finally we went through another gorge, this time the Covatannaz, which although less spectacular than the Gorges of the River Loue was still quite impressive and not as dangerous!
In the afternoon we found all the bars, cafes, and restaurants closed, it being Sunday! We plodded on and finally reached Orbe where we are spending the night in the home of a very nice retired couple, who take in pilgrims,
