Paris to Lourdes


The Bascillica out the Paris Hotel window.
Day 1 with a car!! Right side of road! when we remembered!!
We practised on the roads of the Medoc wine area of Bordeaux. First stop lunch by the river and the frogs legs were tres bien.

Bordeaux too was full of statues and amazing architecture. Cute train ride around the city, lunch overlooking the river and our main feat was climbing 320 steps up the church bell tower of St Michaels. We sipped cool drinks in the famous square.....................Magnifique!




Lourdes was so memorable. We may leave Lourdes but Lourdes will never leave us! The sight of thousands of wheel chairs, the looks of faith and hope in the eyes of so many. Words could never describe it. Spiritually moving as we touch the rock of the grotto and emotional as we passed the pools and listened and saw those seeking healing.
