After battling Paris traffic we were finally able to make it on the autoroute and enjoy the 130 km/h posted speed limit. Our GPS began working and we headed South. After logging some hours on the road we found ourselves in Gramat in the Midi-Pyrenees. After taking some spy photos of the Micheline guide at the gas station, we had a hotel picked out and were ready to settle in for the night. We plan to visit Rocamadour in the morning before heading to our yet to be determined destination. Maybe Bordeaux, perhaps San Sebastian/Bilboa in Spain -- our original destination. Lesson learned today; don't be dependent on the GPS unit for the speed limit and when the speed cameras are about to approach. During a moment of weakness I looked left at the village clinging to the hillside, the GPS unit died, the speed dropped to 110 km/h and voila, a speed camera. Likely my first, but not last, speeding ticket. At least the guide selected hotel offers free wifi ... unfortunately I lost my plug adapter .. monitor dimming quickly ... a la prochaine.
