Morning in Albert


Anne and Peter woke up to this view into the square in Albert

The Basilica. During the battle of the Somme, the Virgin and Child statue on the top of the basilica was hit by a shell, and for 3 years, hung precariously above the church. Finally, some months before the war ended, the statue fell.

Our parisian weather deserted us, with cold, windy and rainy days.

And , of course, Incy Wincy wasn't going anywhere near that bloody water spout. It stayed in the Porter's shower instead.
