Sunday 8th September - Saverne

Another cold grey day with some rain on and off.  In fact it had rained for most of the night we think as the boat was very wet.  We had decided to treat ourselves to lunch out, even though Saverne is quite an expensive town for eating.  So at 12.15 (after the Archers Omnibus!), we walked into town and decided on a Logis hotel, Hotel Jean, having looked at the menu.

The food and service was excellent, with good carafe wines to accompany the food.  A bit on the expensive side but you do get what you pay for!  We walked to the main square afterwards for a coffee and brandy with the weather a little improved.  I think we had the best window, weather wise as shortly after we got back to Aphrodite, the rain started again and continued throughout the evening.

Skip had cleaned the main cabin before lunch, so Crew gave the aft cabin a good clean, after a short siesta.  

The TV reception was pretty good but the on and off rain interfered somewhat - even so we managed to watch Lewis before bed.
