The market had just ended - cleaning was underway - chairs and small tables were set up in front of the town hall, the building providing shade after lunch. A beautiful square with good restaurants - a very pleasant, lively atmosphere. Aÿ-Champagne is a twin town of Besigheim! The mayor walked past us twice into the town hall and greeted us warmly - a pleasant man.
