Dijon

We arrived here late this afternoon and we are already both thoroughly in love with this beautiful city. With its wide , pedestrian only, central boulevards, lovely shops, historic town centre, lovely cathedral, modern trams, cosmopolitan atmosphere and spacious gardens there is just so much to like.

I am sorry that we are not able to spend longer here but tomorrow we hit the roads again on our way to the little town of Flaverny Sur Ozerain, the town where the movie "Chocolat" was filmed. The train from Paris to Dijon was travelling at near 300 kph for large parts of the trip - what a blast ! We can already notice a big change in the geography compared with Brittany and Normandy. Here the terrain is hilly and the air is clear (unlike the misty atmosphere near the coast).Läs mer
