Today we drove to a supermarket in Saints Geomes to do our last minute shopping , basically 3 litres of Ricard at £18.00 a go.  The E.Leclerc was large, and there were various other specialist  E.Leclerc outlets on site.  The carpark was being newly painted, the isles in the shop where wide and airy. All seemed positive, but there seemed to be a lack of the items we wanted.  Saints Geomes also has a dedicated E.Leclerc drive a mile away.  Saints Geomes does not warrant such a large supermarket, it is not much bigger than a large village, but then I suppose there is not much around other than small villages. While here we bought the local cheese called Langres.

Afterwards we headed to one of the four lakes nearby,  La Liez. A man-made lake for water supply. It did have some water sports and fishing, but this was all closed for the season. We ate our lunch in the sun and went for a walk along the lake.  The water sports are sailing, water skiing and some huge plastic island runways set up in the lake for kids to run and play on. 

After a walk along the lake, we wandered back to the car and to the campsite where we did our initial packing before going home.
