A late summer's day
... thought but walked off a few k's too!, A village that we passed through is known for its pottery - stopped off there and had poke around a few shops, some of the work was very good. Got a couple of pieces to add to the couple of pieces we have already bought. Tomorrow we leave Varzy for the alps - am looking forward to something completely different. Have mastered (!!) driving the country roads, tomorrow it's freeway all the ...
A town called Auxerre

Next MC took us to where the twins ride horses once a week so Cade could ride a pony, but he didn't want to. So, we took a nice walk in the forest with the pony.
Afterwards, we went to ...
The other direction
... to find bikes to hire. No luck (damn). Walked it instead. Back to the house for late afternoon wine and cheese - a habit which might be hard to break when we get home. Haven't made up my mind about this village we're staying in - sometimes feels like we're staying on the set of a horror movie set in the 1600's. We're planning on going to the village market tomorrow and exploring the village a little bit ...
