Conques

Today (Wednesday Jan. 21) we went to Conques and visited the Sainte-Foy abbey-church. Conques is an amazing place that was discovered by a Hermit and eventually was expanded into a thriving city by people seeking religious enlightenment.


pics from today.





gratuitous bathroom picture. No soap or toilet paper provided in the bathrooms











The Tympanum over the entrance to the church









The return of Mr. Toast



Since we go on so many bus rides these are definitely required.
