Time will fly by and you will soon be living the dream! Our house is in the Cote D'Or, near to Veneray Les Laumes and we spent 5 weeks there from 27th December to 30 January. It was certainly different being there in winter as opposed to Summer/Autumn, the last time we were there, but just as wonderful. It was a time to see the area in contrast. We had snow, which made the area really beautiful and we spent more time mixing with the locals. When we visited Dijon we only met French people. We are going back 1 April for 10 days and then at the end of May, and personally I cannot wait. We are already retired and I would love to live there permenantly. We would like to hear from people in Cote D'Or departement (21), as when you are new to an area it is good to know someone in the vicinity. Whenever you are in Burgundy it will be fantastic. Each season brings something new, just take advantage of the Spring to be able to visit the cafes etc. without tourists! We have a local cafe off the beaten track and just hope the tourists don't find it! Good luck on your move and just love every moment of it.
