to Flez-Cuzy (Tannay)
5 Locks,
one swing bridge 9.5km
We had
an easy trip to Flez-Cuzy near Tannay. It was another beautiful sunny morning, we were moored up
by 12.15pm. After lunch we cycled up to
Tannay to look around, the bakers were closed until 3.30pm, so we decided not
to wait and cycled back down the hill to the boat. We visited Tannay last year, but walked up
the hill, it was much easier on our bikes (especially on the way down).
Later in the afternoon we walked over the river Yonne to Flez-Cuzy to at
Bar/restaurant that said they were also a Pain Depot, and we bought the last baguette
and we each had a small glass of the local vino, 4 euros.

to Monceaux le Comte
3 locks
one swing bridge 5km
It
rained during the night but we woke up to another lovely sunny, and very mild morning. We
left at 9am as we had arranged to be at our first lock for 9.30am, and just as
we arrived the lady eclusier arrived in her van. She took us through our 3
locks for the day and we arrived at Monceaux le Comte at 11.40am. We saw no other boats today. We moored up in a lovely spot where they have
massive tree trunks piled up being constantly watered. We walked into the small village to see if
the advertised Bolangerie was open, but it was closed due to illness. We located the restaurant we are booked in for
tonight, it looks great and then walked back to the boat to read our books and attempt some more fishing.
