This week, Grinders, we're taking you to the ancient city of Auxerre, France, a place that has existed since before the Middle Ages. The core of the city is quaint, old, and welcoming, while things along the bank of the Yonne River here are also quite nice. (Click on the thumbnail to see our rented boat--the little white one that's three back with the bike on the deck). Auxerre, France; September, 2009.
