  • As we start our second week of this road trip we continue in an easterly direction. We make a short stop in Beaune the capital of the Burgundy wine region. We take a walk around Semur-en-Auxois before arriving at our next overnight stop, Vezelay. The old medieval town of Semur-en-Auxois sits high upon a granite cliff sited within a meander of the River Armancon. Great towers remain of a castle which formerly occupied the narrow neck of the meander. Vezeley climbs a prominent hill which is crowned by a Benedictine Abbey. The Abbey acquired relics that included those of Mary Magdalene. It became a centre of pilgrimage and regional importance. The Second Crusade was preached here by St Bernard of Clairvaux before King Louis VII and his Queen Eleanor. The Third Crusade saw the French King Philippe August and England`s Richard the Lionheart meet here before setting out for the Holy Land. Today this is still a place of pilgrimage and a favoured destination for tourists. The Abbey church is a fantastic example of the Burgundian Romanesque style. This is also one of the major starting points for pilgrims starting their journey to Santiago de Compostela. The site has World Heritage status and on our visit we were able to enjoy the wonderful views its elevated position affords.

      I got carried away a bit waving. Ivor is always sending me back and forth to wander through his shots. Semur was a really beautiful traditional town though and really lovely to explore. Best wishes from Nottingham.

    Hi guys, Beaune looked really pretty as you walked around, I liked the outdoor eateries, so relaxing and the church was beautiful. That castle at Senur looked amazing and I loved the architecture around here especially of that church and its bells ringing over the beautiful countryside :) Another lovely tour from you both 👍~ Anna

      Good Morning Anna. Thank you once more for your kind comments. That was a lovely experience as the bells rang out from the abbey at Vezelay. We were really enjoying the weather too. Mid October as we visited here. Everywhere there is great beauty to be enjoyed, both natural and man made. Hope you have a wonderful day. We are starting the day here with a beautiful blue sky but sadly I think it will be clouding over soon. Best wishes to you both from Robert & Ivor.

      Good Morning Dave & Dawn. We were having a really great time. There are some really beautiful places in France. We could go back every year if funds and health would allow. We do like pretty much everywhere that we go. Ivor did suggest I give him a wave from the bridge and it looks like I got a bit carried away. Hope you are enjoying the weekend. Best wishes Robert & Ivor.
