Paray le Monial to Montchanin

The last 2 entry's were back to front. !
  We were on the trail by 7.30 this morning . Wanted to beat the heat of the day. This is a shared section,ie, a quiet road . We only met about 5 cars the whole morning, all fishermen probably. They each have about 4 rods in, god knows what they'd do with the fish if they caught one !
  Got in to Montchanin by 11.30 as we'd stopped at a McDonald's in Blanzy to talk to Dennis on Skype. Jill's home from Australia so it was good to see her as well.
  This was the 2nd day of 65kms so we were looking forward to a shower and a beer.  You can imagine how brassed off we were then ,to find that the only camp in 100kms from Paray to St Leger no longer exists !
  After going back for the van and then searching around , it was 8pm before we found one up here in Santenay. Worth it though, this place is lovely and tomorrow we'll have a sleep in!
