Went to an Impressionist exhibition in Rouen with many paintings by Monet, Pissarro and Gauguin, mostly painted around Rouen and the Cathedral in particular. Not a lot of emphasis on Joan of Arc except for an archway and a statue in the Town Hall.
Everyone is winding down now that we are on our last day of touring. We came to the beautiful city of Bruges by taxi this morning and have to be back on board at 3.30pm for sailing to Southampton.
Bruges is amazing, such lovely buildings and the chocolate shops make us drool.
Overall, we have been to and seen some wonderful places and for me Italy would be top of the list. Loved the food and the people but too many tourists- would be nicer in cooler months. Lyn W - thought of you as we came here today as there is a Dali exhibition on and banners everywhere!
Love to everyone, will maybe add a bit more from London
