Chalon sur Saône

 Tuesday was a work day for us. We had provisioning, laundry, boat cleaning, bike repair etc to get done. We still managed to start the day with croissants and café. With all the rain we'd had on Monday, the channel our marina was in had a current running at well over 2 knots and we were right where the current hit us at about 30° off our bow. This pushed us hard against the dock and piled lots of debri, from small logs to leaves across our bow and stuck between us and the dock. By evening Michael was getting antsy to at least get into town for a bit of sightseeing And a late afternoon café au lait.

Today's blog will just be pictures of our walk around the old city of Chalon sur Saône. I'm sure you'll find them much more interesting that us talking about doing laundry and cleaning the boat.

Chimneys and blue sky - great afternoon to walk the old town



Place Saint Vincent - Great place to people watch and catch a glass of wine or a café au lait
