More food

It had been a pretty hot day. We headed back home but stopped so Emily could buy a baguette from one of our favorite bakers.

The meal was one of our favorites so far.

Flavigny-sur-Ozerain

After the Chateau we headed to a small cute village in the hills. It is where the move Chocolat was filmed. It was a sleepy little village, very pretty but very quiet. We had watched the movie a few nights ago, we found the church and chacolat storefront. We also visited the store that makes a local candy only available here.

We then headed on to the Cateau Bussey-Rabitin. He was a scoundrel that made fun of Loius XIV and was put into exile in this Chateau. He spent his days collecting art and making fun of the royal court.

The estate also had really nice gardens including a labyrinth though it was a bit hot in the sun.
