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.
Fantastic place
ReplyDeleteHow's Mr Toast holding out with all the French food, frogs legs and larks tongues etc. it must be a bit rich for the toasty palate
