TdF Day 36 - Champers!

Early morning start to get out of the streets of Riquewihr before the tourists took over. Long drive up to Strasbourg and then towards Paris, before turning off to champagne country.
Arrived in Le Breuil maison "La Ravenne" at 3.00 to find two local guys stocking in the firewood. Rest of the new expanded Pelaton were lunching and shopping after getting there around 12.00.
Settled into our room and admired the view across the vines to the village as rain began to fall. When the Pelaton was rejoined we decided on a quick raid on one of the champagne houses in the village. Our host Didier was very friendly and insisted on all of the bottle being finished before we left. Several more local houses will need to be visited on the basis of this experience.
Queen Kez organized dinner, as only she can, in-house before an early night for all.
