Where Am I?

As much as an exercise in geekdom as anything else, I thought I’d see what I could generate in the way of “content” on this particular part of France.

First, I need some tag words – Aubigny-en-Plaine, Brazey-en-Plaine, Saint-Jean-de-Losne, Esbarres – and then I go into the magic application called Apture. At this point I have to leave you for a moment to go online.


LATER: Well, that's all very clever. Actually, if you look at the photo of Saint-Jean you see the bridge over the river Saône which more or less marks the boundary between the departments of the Côte d'Or and the Jura, and the regions of Burgundy and Franche-Comté. Historically, it marked the limits of the Kingdom of France and the Holy Roman Empire.
If we want to get a better idea of where we stand in the greater scheme of things, look at the map of Aubigny and zoom out a little to see where we are located in relation to Dijon, Dole, etc.
