Villaines La Juhel. This town really enjoys having a control There is a street party the whole time. In 2011, the mayor had a mic and was playing master of ceremonies. I think he might have interviewed me.
The card stamping is on the right as you enter. They also had rigged up a way to fill your water bottles. The cafeteria is on the other side of the street. They have schoolkids to carry your tray for you, and my experience was that he will follow you around if you carry your own tray. So let them do it. Plus the eating area is at the bottom a ramp, so having someone carry your tray down that is nice.
This might be a good place to sleep on the return trip. It's a bit more than 200k to the finish. I know that getting to Mortagne from here was a real slog. But I might have gotten to Villaines too early for it to make sense to sleep here.
I think I have my picture right, someone can confirm?
