Meung-sur-Loire, which must be pronounced "Main", is a small city on the Loire on the right bank, south of Orléans. In its medieval town, its winding streets and its monuments steeped in history invite you to take a stroll back in time. Along the Quai Jeanne d'Arcune, bucolic perspectives on the river follow one another.

Nice stage, with a short detour into the center of Orléans. Still windy :( Note: if the long blades of grass are bent in your direction, then you are going in the wrong direction!
