The girls wanted to go shopping, so we drove to Boise for the day. We parked the car on the opposite side of the river from the shops and paid for a couple of hours parking.
Over the bridge and into the shopping streets, Ralph and I headed to a bar while the girls looked around the shops. We intended to have a beer in a bar we had used in 2009, unfortunately it wasn't open but there was another bar just around the corner. Also unfortunately, unlike the bar we were intending to use, this bar had a very poor choice of beer. The draught beers on offer were, a Portuguese beer, a Dutch beer and a fruit beer from Belgium, not a good selection we chose the Portuguese.
After the beer (we didn't fancy another one), we met back up with the girls and went up to the Château royal de Blois. This involved climbing an awful lot of steps, in the end it was worth it for some nice views across the city rooftops.
Again as yesterday the sky darkened and it looked like it was going to rain, so we set off for the car. Back over the river it cleared up so we stopped for drinks and ice-creams / cakes in a riverside cafe, before heading back to the campsite.
On the way back I checked out another campsite in Onzain. Back at the site the girls went over to the pool while Ralph and I did our final BBQ together this holiday. Tomorrow Dot and I were moving on and Ralph and the girls were going home.
