Cosne-Cours-sur-Loire, Day 2
When we had attempted to have lunch at the nearby restaurant the previous evening, we were informed that there was going to be an event there that evening. That “event” included live music that played until at least 11:30 that night. Some of it was good, and some of it was horrible. Fortunately it was just far enough away as to be slightly annoying background noise, and not feel as though we were camping in the middle of the concert.
The rest of the night was quiet, continuing well into the morning when I woke up at 8am. It was an overcast morning, but the sun was showing signs that it would not hide for long. We got dressed and walked across the bridge into the town of Cosne-Cours-sur-Loire to see what it had to offer.
It was a small place, but bustling due to some sort of book signing / fair in the center of town. It didn’t take long to see the sights, so we headed along the river to a “Cyclerail” business about half an hour away. I’d heard of this type of
⁃ Cross bridge, book fair (signing?)
⁃ Hot
⁃ Walked along rice to Cyclerail 25 minutes?
⁃ Walked across bridge and back
⁃ No reservations traffic into town shops closed 12 – 14:30
⁃ Lunch at le Chalet
