We had a magic day yesterday, with 25 degrees sunshine, it was lovely. Thoissey was a lovely little village decorated with beautiful flowers which were still in bloom.
We set off this morning, heading further South, at 9.45am, and immediately into the Thoissey lock with a 3.2m drop. The weather is dreadful today, as forecast - why can’t they get it wrong sometimes! It is overcast with continuous rain - great weather for ducks.
Needless to say, it was not a pleasant journey and I was thankful that there were only 2 locks on route to Collonges au Mont d’Or which is 12km North of Lyon.
We arrived at 2.15pm and tied up on the Halte Fluviale landing stage. We have dinner booked this evening at gourmet restaurant Paul Bocuse for 8pm, right next to the stop. Apparently people travel from Paris to have lunch and dinner here, so it must be good!
Collonges au Mont d’Or is 45’48’.941N 004’50’.981E and we travelled 27nm today.
We have now travelled a total of 1633nm to date, going through 246 locks.
