Saturday 17th July 2010 Nemours. Day off

Still cool overnight. Windy but sunny. Walked into town to get the car. The market was in full swing, very busy with loads of white vans parked down the road to the canal. Shopping at Carrefour Market in St Pierre-les-Nemours, a village which has spread to join up with the built up area of Nemours. Back for lunchtime. Had to carry the stuff a couple of hundred metres to the boat, getting hot doing it. While the lock was closed for lunchtime we moved the boat down to a convenient gap on the quay and refilled the water tank, then moved back to the end of the line. Two empty péniches heading uphill went past just after lunch, Tempo at 1.15 p.m. and Vesta twenty minutes later. Getting hotter but wind refreshing.
