Today we agreed to cycle to Abbaye de Fontenay, a little way down the Canal de Bourgogne. We set off quite early for us and packed up lunch. The abbey was in really good condition and in a beautiful location. We went on one of the walks and had our lunch in the woods. We cycled back and had a coffee in one of the bars along the way. On arrival back at the van we had a major diplomatic incident, when one of the riverboat hotels tried to dock near us and Bill refused to move to allow them to put down the gangplank. After tempers had settled we decided to move to the other side of town to another spot on the river where we had a lovely meal outside and chatted well into the dark.
