Once back in Semur Emily and I headed up the hill for a tour of one of the Semur towers. We arrived just as a huge thunderstorm hit. During the storm we had a guided tour (with just one other persons) of the tower built in the 1100’s.

Afterwards we went and dined at the delicious Restaurant des Minimes. We had a wonderful meal that included salmon, legumes, eggs in a Bourgogne sauce, cod, steak, creme brûlée and tart citron. Oh my!! Amazing.

Tomorrow we are up early for a drive to Dijon then trains to Berne, Interlachen and Lauterbrunnen Switzerland. We’ve totally enjoyed the laid back time in the French countryside and look forward to the Swiss alps.
