Beaune |
Monday 20 June
Beaune is a pretty town with lots of shops and two town squares. We explored the ramparts, the gardens, the old quarter and the new quarter.
Tuesday 21 June
Pierre-de-Bresse’s claim to fame is a chateau which is beautiful. Unfortunately by the time we got there it was closed. We did however get the opportunity to feed the goats that were in the grounds.
Found the cascade - pity about the water |
From there it was into the Jura region close to the Swiss border. It is a really pretty part of the country with mountains, pines, babbling brooks and alpine looking houses. We tried to find the cascades but had difficulty because, as we finally realised, the snow has already melted and there is no water to form a cascade! We climbed up a 15th century donkey track to the lookout. The track was as once used to bring wheat down to the mill in the valley.
Another pretty village - this time in the Jura |
Our car is down there somewhere |
