Another so called rest day, so Crew got the ironing board out and Skip got the polish out!! After a morning of work, a well deserved beer and the usual lunch, followed by a siesta. Trevoux is a very quaint old town, typical of the Saone area. It was the former capital of the Principality of Dombes and prospered in the 17th and 18th centuries. The view from the terrace square is magnificent, overlooking the Saone Valley - a bit of a climb up through the narrow streets but worth the effort! Some of the streets are so steep that rails have been placed for assistance with the climb!
We had an aperitif on board around 7 p.m.then made our way to Le Chaudron. The meal that we remembered consisted of all you can eat Grenouilles, served in a large paella-type pan which kept coming as long as the customers were hungry - alas......this was only served on Fridays and Saturdays! Somehow we always seem to be a day too early or a day too late! Never mind there were still frogs' legs on the menu so we weren't disappointed!
