DATE: Sunday 23 July, 1995
PLACE: Seille and Saone Rivers
WEATHER: Warm and Breezy
REMARKS: A cool start with a rude awakening from an angry
French fisherman in whose favourite spot we evidently were.
He was not impressed with our insistence on having breakfast
before leaving; so much so, he cast us off! We made a hasty
recovery, stirred up his fishing area, and went in search
of a quiet breakfast spot.
The rest of the day is spent puttering along, tying up to
eat, and passing through the town of Macon; in other words
a lot of time spent doing not a lot! Great!
Macon is a very pretty town. Again the streets are irregular,
with buildings right to the roadside. The shops are more readily
identified than in Italy, with better signage.
We find the Public Relations office, collect a pamphlet
or two, and identify possible dentists for Desiree before
returning to the boat for dinner and a quiet evening of chat.
