A Couple of Photos

It's chilly and cloudy in Avignon today, so I thought I would send out an extra post with a number of photos before I do the blog tonight. It's a little complicated to do the blog on the iPad as the app isn't all that great, so we'll hope it goes okay.

The French are obsessed with bread (for good reason). I took this at the Rouen Sunday Market on Easter.

Half-timber houses are popular in Normandy. This one was in Honfleur.
