Bonjour France!




Today in France

BEAUNE: One photo of the courtyard rooftop on our tour of the Hospices de Beaune en Bourgogne. (Built in 1443, the place where many poor & sick were cared for through centuries, including the plague. Their website http://www.hospices-de-beaune.com/gb/hospices/index.php)
VEZELAY: The Basilica of St. Mary Magdalene - famous pilgrimage site for Mary Magdalene's remains (or so believed - pictured) and location which 3 Crusades were launched from.

Great food, amazing trip. Several more days to come, I'll try to keep you posted! Tomorrow we are touring Amboise.

Start digging and see if you can find her. Have you read any Dan Brown?
