Thursday here is market day (again) so we spent the morning walking among the crowds looking at various stalls, trying on various cheap garments and making a couple of purchases as well as buying some fruit and vegetables.
After lunch we walked to the local public pool (Piscine Yves Blanc) which is a short way out of the city, a pool complex which is reasonably new and well laid out but quite under-utilised if the numbers there this afternoon are typical. Like I struck in Beaune when we went to the public pool in 2015 a male cannot swim in boxer type togs but I was ready for that and had both boxers and speedos with me, so we overcame that hurdle without bother.The main pool was 50m and there were a few fit bods swimming lengths while there was a smaller pool, shorter and shallower as well.
The pool environment gave the impression that top level swimming meets could be held here. After a relaxing and cooling swim we started the walk back to the accommodation stopping on the way for a coffee at a Columbus Cafe, which is a similar coffee house to the likes of Starbucks.
Relaxing day completed
