Today 15.09.17, we arrived in Albi in the South of France, and I have managed to download a couple of photos. This is the view of the cathedral from the window where we are staying and of course it was straight there to have a look and I have downloaded one interior photo so you have an idea of what we saw. Tomorrow all the public buildings in France are free of charge which we didn’t know about, so as we have a whole day in Albi, we are going to be very busy, much to husbands amusement 🙂 More to follow when we get home.
That’s quite different to the Gothic cathedrals we’re used to seeing in Northern Europe
Oh yes, this is one amazing church, I will post about it once we get home 🙂
Wow, what a church! Hope you’re having a great time in France. At least the weather looks beautiful! Marcus
