Woke up in another city, it was Frances number two city Lyon. After a
breakfast of fresh blueberry pancakes and waffles, we set of for our tour of the
old town exploring many secret passage ways which were used for hiding people in
the 2nd WW by the resistance. We then headed to the amazing Basilica of Fourvieres. From the outside this is an attractive building but inside it blows
your mind with gold mosaics and incredible stain glass windows depict icing
biblical scenes. On top of this the view from the Hill of Fourvieres across Lyon
is amazing.
We returned to the boat for a lunch of poached salmon oysters and
champagne, our waist lines are expanding under the amazing temptations that the
head chief offers on a daily basis!
The afternoon was spent sailing Shalons- sur- Aaone. Tonight was the gala
dinner night, where we were served Chauteu Briande one of 7 courses! The
regional wine from Burgundy flowed freely and it wasn't long until we started to
dance to what was one of the best jazz French singers ever encountered. What a
night of fun! We'll done Uniworld for an excellent culinary adventure with fun
entertainment.
