Family summer holidays - Clermond Ferrand

Our next stop, Clermond-Ferrand. This part of France is quite volcanic, so we visited the museum. We had to dress up in the correct attire of course.

Then we could jump on the volcanic rocks.

 A geyser building up within the ground.

An impressive structure, just for show really.

There is also a wild-life animal park nearby. Complete with all the usual suspects, ones that you wouldn't want to face without a fence between you.

 And some goats to pet.

 Who knew that there were great contraptions for kids to play on too?

Bonus!

We also visited another medieval chateaux, very popular around France.

This one is pretty impressive, being built around the 12th century.

Someone got in trouble during our visit.

 But that was okay, she turned out to be someone very important.

The castle, how it might look as you tried to attack it.

Just another crazy day on our family summer holiday trip.
