Showing the siblings around (2)

The sightseeing trip continued! First to Luçon, a larger town about 30 minutes away from La Tranche.

It has an impressive cathedral, complete with impressive sheet to hide ongoing renovation works

There are cloisters...

...and even a monk and two nuns!


The same gargoyle...

...two different views.

It's hard to get the full height of the spire in a photo...

...even harder to get these superstars together. (Where's Kate?!)

Onto the now land-locked island, La Dive, not far from l'Aiguillon.

Three likely ones have climbed to the top

You can see the original sea cliff here

And above? Monique's cousin's house. Sadly they were rushing off but told us to have a mooch round.
