Today I took a walk to the “centre Ville”, or town centre which is 3.8km from the campsite. Check out the church above; it’s difficult to get an idea of scale unless you look at buildings on the right. A truly massive building, out of proportion for a small place like this.
The centre of town, when I got there was silent. Everything is closed on this Sunday afternoon. Indeed, it’s so dead here, the town should be twinned with Stornoway.
The back streets provide some interesting attractions such as Jesus on the cross, or the bicycle turned into a planter, below.
Well that’s it for today. It’s quarter past six local time as I write this and the rain is beating heavily on the roof of the van.
Tomorrow takes the Sooty Van away from the French forests and into Germany. Keep an eye on progress with http://tinyurl.com/sootytrack
