Day 100. Wow! That somehow went simultaneously quickly and slowly. And yes, I see the issue there. We’re spending it in Tours, our second visit, having popped in to visit our lovely friends when they […]

2019 Day 99 – Langeais and Lignieres-de-Touraine
After yesterday’s Chateau’s loveliness, we decide to try our luck with a second. Langeais, only a few kilometres away fits right bill perfectly. Set on the Loire, the sneak preview on our map looks very […]
2019 Day 98 – Loches and Azayle-Rideau
A cooler morning brings the opportunity to pop back into Loches. Just as well too, otherwise we might have missed the spectacle of market day. It’s not that we actually need anything, but I can […]
2019 Day 97 – Loches
I’ve long loved the Loire Valley. Playground to French aristocrats through the centuries, the wilderness of the river Loire, the picturesque villages nested into its banks, chateaus enough to satisfy any real estate fantasy one […]
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 94 – Saint Pere and Apremont-sur-Allier
Every so often, you come across a place so magical you have to quite pinch yourself to confirm it’s real. Thanks to yet another Les Plus Beaux Villages de France recommendation, we discover Apremont-sur-Allier this […]
2019 Day 93 – Flavigny-sur-Ozerain
The heat’s here to stay. One cannot hide by a canal any longer, pretending it’s a cool day. And then there’s that ferry that’s booked to take us to England from Le Havre. One way […]
2019 Day 92 – Bourgogne Canal
I shouldn’t be surprised, it being summer, but the heat is making a comeback tour. Just when I had happily settled into seemingly endless mild sunshine, the dial’s been turned up to “scorch”. Having found […]
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 […]
2019 Day 90 – Pesmes and Beaune
It’s always works a treat, driving the day before, to wake in our Les Plus Beaux Village of choice. With Pesmes on our very doorstep, it’s only moments before we’re fully immersed in village life […]
