2023-05-31: Corre -> Port-sur-Saone

Leaving the one of the cleanest and best maintained port of our journey, Corre, we spend another uneventful but pleasant day on the water.  In the late afternoon, we arrived at Port de la Maladière, the port of Port-Sur-Saone. Many boats look pretty worn and seem to be in a poor state which gives it the impression of a ship graveyard. Port-Sur-Saone on the other hand is a pretty small-town with surprisingly many backeries (we counted 3) for its size. Its roots go back to the gallo-roman times.

 

Barge converted to house boat currently on land. We witnessed a failed attempt to get it out of the water one day earlier.
