Euro tunnel from Folkestone at 11.36. Arrived at our hotel in Chalon en Champagne about 3pm! Ibis Styles ; very simple and functional on a lively square in this old part of town. Beer in the sunshine alongside lots of Friday evening revellers. A good atmosphere. Restaurants not so easy to find - some closed, some looking uninviting, more like burger cafes. However after a wander around and down a side alley, we found a tiny brasserie, Le Chaudron Savoyard, where we had a over sized tartiflett each at a table outside and went back stuffed.
The Marne and it's canal passes through here.
Next day checked out the canal in Pogny, a tiny village but where they had built a new mooring strip with several water taps spaced along it. A building plot at the back of this is crying out for a cafe. Next year when we are afloat maybe there will be!
