Rest day today so had a sleep in and breakfast at the hotel. Wifi working fine so the blog updated. View from the hotel.
Off for a walk around the old part of Tours without the crowds of yuppies sitting around drinking coffee. Interesting buildings. Some of the older ones had the stairs on the outside, similar to the ones at Lyon.
Some had them bricked in.
A few timber fronted buildings.
Went for a walk further out and still interesting building scattered about. This was all that was left of this one which fronted onto a court.
Heaps of streets lined with cafes.
I don't think I'd be laughing if I was this fellow.
Rear of an old church. Reminds me of some of the battle ships on The kids computer games.
Another old house on a corner.
Nice enough town and plenty of shops for the ladies. Back to the hotel and a few domestic chores (washing) to be done before we are off tomorrow. Nice meal at a restaurant in the old centre and off to bed. I'm looking forward to getting back out in the country.
