Cutesy and world-renown wine towns like Nuits-s-Georges and Give?-Chambertin (sp?) and Beaune of course are accessible by train from Dijon as well as other little villages if you take the "Michelines" or really local trains that run often enough

Judy you may want to check the bus schedule (especially bus 44 that goes from Dijon to Beaune and Chalon)

or directly here (pdf heavy to load)

Give?-Chambertin (sp?) is Gevrey-Chambertin Pal (Kerouac is right about your French! ;-) )

kerouac Sep 25th, 2007 12:45 PM

Oh, puleeze... I'm sure your son has taught you better French than that!

kerouac Oct 1st, 2007 08:36 AM

Sans doute l'invitation concernait uniquement les 31 septembre qui tombaient également le jour de la Saint Glinglin.

PalenQ Oct 1st, 2007 08:38 AM

Tant pis

merci

A plus!

PalenQ Oct 2nd, 2007 07:01 AM

Desolee moi, tres, tres desolee.

cocofromdijon Oct 2nd, 2007 08:37 AM

Oh Pal I'm so sorry! I saw your message yesterday and when I started to answer you (I was still laughing), my connection stopped.:-((
Anyway I'm not sure my present guest would like to share the apartment with you. ;;)
BTW he's done a lot of videos about Paris by bike (and on foot) and he has just started a serie about Burgundy, have a look!

KidstoLondon, thanks a lot for the postcard of Ellicott city, it looks cute. :-) I'm still not able to send emails...

<Est-ce que un annee bien pour la vinticultures de Bourgogne?>
Well you'll have to come in 2 years to taste and tell :-)

BTW congrats! =D>

PalenQ Oct 4th, 2007 06:37 AM

Merci pour l'invitation pour 2009 - rendez-vous (rends-tu) au gare de dijon, avant l'heurtoir de quais numero 2? Sept 31em, 2009, d'accord.

a plus

cocofromdijon Oct 4th, 2007 09:04 AM

Pal il n'y a pas de quai n°2 à Dijon, letters only. Trains from Paris usually stop on platform A and leave from platform J.
Et le heurtoir est trop loin! Dijon n'est pas comme la gare de Lyon, ce n'est pas un terminus... /:)

KidsToLondon Oct 5th, 2007 09:17 AM

Help! The Francophones have taken over "my" posting! (you're excused Coco!)

;-)

loving the "franglais".

Myles Kington [uk journo] has made a whole career out of it.

Dijon is working its way to the top of my "to go" list very quickly. Thanks for the tip about not going in the picking season, David.

felicitations, ann
