2019 Day 102 – Le Bec-Hellouin
It’s time. With our ferry booked for Friday, we need to make the last long drive, pushing north towards Honfleur. At over 200 kilometres, the drive takes most of the day. We drive through endless […]
2019 Day 95 – Apremont-sur-Allier and Nevers
I can’t resist another walk through Apremont-sur-Allier this morning, if only to capture it in the morning light. It seems there’s more to discover: there’s the church, no doubt once chapel to the chateau, not […]
2019 Day 91 – Beaune and Chateauneuf
Finally, our timing works to enjoy one of the best aspects of French country life – market day! Beaune’s is a particularly good one, with a wonderful array of produce. The only challenge is exerting […]

We fell in love with Eguisheim last year, one of the Les Plus Beaux Villages, just out of Colmar, in the gorgeous Alsace region. We vowed to return, if only to enjoy the lunch we […]
2019 Day 30 – Lost in Lavender
There are very few things in this world that would see me willingly enter areas with temperatures threating to exceed 40 degrees. Seeing Provence’s lavender fields in flower is one of them. And it’s so […]
2019 Day 29 – Le Poet-Laval
It’s time to farewell the lovely Lyon and resume our lavender quest. Our journey south takes us along the Rhone river and the vineyards of the Cote de Rhone, Provence bound. It’s clear this is […]
2019 Day 26 – Perouges
If you ever wanted to truly feel that you’ve stepped back into the Middle Ages, then I have the perfect spot for you.
2019 Day 25 – Lods and Baume les Messieurs
We’re back on the Les Plus Beaux Villages trail today with a visit to not one, but two pretty villages. Our journey to Lods takes us into the land of Comte – France’s famous semi-hard […]
