February 2020. We are still in Tucson, Arizona, well, often anyway. We continue our wanderings and enjoying our adventures. We haven't lived outside the US in awhile, but have lived in: Guatemala, Ecuador, the Netherlands (twice), Germany (twice) and South Africa. We have now traveled to well over 100 countries, but that doesn't mean we plan on stopping any time soon. ... full info

France, Reims Cathedral

I love flying buttresses

France, Reims Cathedral

The Smiling Angel of Reims

France, Reims Cathedral

I was fascinated with the many headless saints and martyrs memorialized on the cathedrals

France, Amiens Cathedral

Another gothic cathedral town - one of our favorites. We had the BEST B & B there - bikes we could use, lovely garden, amazing hostess

France, Amiens Cathedral

More headless saints

France, Amiens Cathedral

Contrasted to the Smiling Angel of Reims, Amiens had a Crying Angel - said to be the most photographed statute by American WWII soldiers

France, Amiens Cathedral

Headless martyrs - the French seem to have a thing about beheadings - think guillotine

France, Chartres Cathedral

Our third and final gothic cathedral town

France, St. Malo

An historic, walled city and where we caught the ferry to the Channel Islands, UK

France, St. Malo Hotel

We got a room in the heart of the historic district; we looked out over the walls to the ocean

France, St. Malo City Walls

A super easy way to get around - you could walk around the entire crowded old city on the city walls w/spectacular views

Channel Islands, Jersey

Full of WWII German fortifications, but with fabulous beaches and castles, Jersey was a delight

Channel Islands, Jersey

Had hoped to bike on the island, but found there were only a few dedicated trails - actually "shared" with cars, trucks, horses and too narrow by far

Channel Islands, Jersey

Biking, we soooo wanted to, but didn't feel safe on the roads

Channel Islands, Jersey, St. Aubin Harbor

Many, many lovely villages and seaside towns on Jersey

Channel Islands, Jersey

Lighthouse

Channel Islands, Jersey
