It had rained all night.

At times hard and at other times a soft, consistent rain that is so soothing.

The day was supposed to start with a 90 minute walk into the next town through sunflower fields and the French countryside.

The rain changed our plans.

We ended up driving to the town and exploring the architecture, churches, tapestries and a chocolat or two.

Our day also consisted of a visit to a vocal artist that makes the most incredible tapestries on a huge loom.

What a lost art and so amazing to get a glimpse into how long and detailed this art form is.

The afternoon sun later came out and I was able to go back and get photos of the sunflower fields and the gorgeous countryside…….that is for another day.
