Saturday 4th October 2025: Day 5

Today was a day of two halves – the first being a visit to Troyes and the second travel further south.

We’d been told Troyes was a beautiful city & worth a visit so we used the trusty Park4Night app to find motorhome parking near the center. Again it didn’t let us down & we were navigated to a carpark with large spaces within 5 minutes walk of the old town.

Despite the rain Troyes was worth a visit with many old and knackered buildings that would get Philip really excited.

Our walk round Troyes ended with a visit to a fine Boulangerie where tasty treats were purchased.

We then had some lunch in the van & set off south. We drove for several hours before stopping at a free site near a river in Lamarche-sur-Saone (#1474). The rain stopped & we had a walk round the small village which had a very large church for its size.

Salmon & red wine for tea before an early night
