Thursday 24 th September Val de L'oise to Ligny en BarroisB

 3 hour drive using motorways and tolls through flat green landscapes. Ligny and  nearby Bar le Duc are gateway towns to the Jura region. A village d' etape ( Def is 'a charming village under 5000 inhabitants  near a motorway )  Parked overnight in an ex municipal camp site site with excellent showers , warm and spotlessly clean. Noise from nearly road not too disturbing. Andy's toes were hurting ( painful ligaments) so we did a short circuit around the town which looked very empty of shops and decaying houses. Painkillers and ice pack from Pharmacy helped Andy a pain.  Helpful female assistants .Good walking cycling trails nearby (apparently)

Canal in town 
Lifebelt hut 😊
Water levels very low 
Someone constructed an aviary 

Notre Dame 
Notre Dame 

Tower of fortified castle closed to the public

Eleclerc supermarkets don't mess about!
