Before we arrived in Annecy, we randomly chose a town off the highway and decided to do a little exploring. The city we chose was called Beaune, which is one of the key wine centers of France. In addition, Beaune is a fun stop because in the center of town are electric and quaint little stores, and around the city is an ancient wall and moat. It's not a huge city, but definitely a fun stop to just see a little French history.
Center of town is about four blocks of criss-crossing streets full of fun stores and shops.
Before we left we enjoyed some wonderful ham and cheese sandwiches at at Brasseire Le Carnot. The interior of the restaurant has the original wood and counter from the 1920s, and outside you sit where the roads of shops intersect into a quaint square. If you are looking for a short stop to break up the trip, grab a glass of wine, pull up a chair and enjoy an afternoon in Beaune.
