the large house with the kiddy cubbie in the yard is just back towards Auxerre from the museum - not far at all - the 'bush' - I think you are referring to is just on the other side of the canal - much of which you can almost spit over - these canals here that go northish southish in Burgundy (the Nivernais and Bourgogne - are for small pleasure traffice (I assume the Bourgogne is similar).

I might do both of them next season - my aim is for the Bourgogne - it's raved about and said to be the epitome of the French experience.

for the next walk - about the same distance - (or I might wait until I get a bike - a mate is loaning me one for the winter) - that'll be a bloody laugh - me on a bike (without a motor) --
this is only a very short distance in a straight line from where I was at the museum - I take a different route and it's about the same timing I think

everyone raves about it - check the pics out.

I also got the goss on some really fine French bubbles - not Champagne - was told it's often better -------- and, there's some at this place.

You have to watch these bloody frogs - the let all the foreign tourists go to Paris - but, they bugger off to just north of Burgundy for the food and wine - then, they hide really good fizz in areas like this - and, they aren't Champagne - gotta watch em

just go back to those caves full of grog -------- not sure of who he was - I think he was the boyfriend or partner of the Mrs' ex artist ----------- he told me that there's some really good stuff in those caves and it's cheap - if you zoom in on the prices - they certainly are cheap - in comparison to the prices I was seeing in the touristy champagne areas
he gave me the distinct froggy wink - which said - that's the places where we get our stuff

I said he was a bad influence - he said, na - it's just the french influence

hmmmm - I think he said there's 86 thousand bottles stored in the caves

Anthony Quinn - 'The Secret of Santa Vittoria' -- would be dreadfully proud of them
