Time to Wander
The sun is shining and still warm as I wander up the sleepy main road. I pass a quaint little café; the delicious smells and the sound of chatter fill the air as a large French family are enjoying lunch outside. I stop to look at the menu du jour and I’m sorry I’ve already eaten. I deviate off the main road to walk through an alleyway where the buildings and architecture are stunning. A great chance to take pictures, although I’m sure I take pictures of the same buildings every time I come here! Yet every time I feel like I’m seeing it for the first time.
Shortly the imposing form of the Abbey will loom large ahead of me. You can’t pass by without going inside. I will, but not just yet.
I cross the road to have a look in the shop with the French grey shutters and the rusty metal bric a brac outside. I go inside for a browse then head back outside and take a few more pictures! Across the road is the market square and I wander over to the art gallery. I’m looking for some posters by local artists that I saw the last time I was here, but my attention is taken up by some stunning photographs and paintings. Note to self – a future birthday or Christmas present!
