d35 c26 2011/08/13 0855-1225 37m1051 Clamecy-Auxerre

Cotinued down the Yonne valley on the Canal de Nivernais towpath.
The river and the canal share paths for some stages, then the canal cuts away to lower its height through locks before rejoining.
Some dramatic scenes where the river bend has cut into the hills.

Arrived with the canal in the old centre of Auxerre,
Except for short hops at bridges and locks, I've just done 200k without hills, and the old legs are feeling greatful for it.   Maybe I can find a way of continuing this through to Calais.
