Meandering through the refreshing Cantal, our last stop, was a welcome few days... moreso knowing Paris was in the middle of a heatwave. The region, renown for its tranquil beauty, gets its moment of fame almost every year during the Tour de France and is on the Auvergne Cheese Route.

How to prevent an attack by a cow (short version)
- Due to the location of their eyes cows do not have a straight line of sight, so make sure they respond to your voice
- If you detect an aggressive cow keep moving calmly and do not make direct eye contact
- Keep your body facing the cow at all times. Do not turn your back or run
And finally -
- If you are attacked, hit the cow directly on the nose to deter it - BPJ
