Une croix de Provins

Just a short trip out of Paris 

the Medieval city of Provins is filled

with history and architecture.

Here in the courtyard of Eglise Saint-Quiriace

a delicate cross is surrounded by lush palettes of green

bon dimanche

Chartres Cathedral

Seen through a window as Marie and I climbed the many steps 

to the top of the bell tower, 

the interior of Chartres Cathedral 

appears to be a blended neutral color.

The major renovations and makeover 

of this eight hundred year old cathedral have created a stir.  

I look forward to checking them out myself 

before passing judgment, but you can read about it here.*
