Chartres

On our way to Chartres, our first stop of our summer holidays.

First, a quick stop for lunch in Auxerre, and to admire the cathedral.

Joan of Arc also stopped here for mass in 1429.

Pretty streets and an astrological clock tower. 

Made it to our accommodation in Chartres, very comfortable.

Amazing cathedral from the 12th century. 

We were lucky to catch a light show on the cathedral.

 

After a hearty breakfast, we strolled around Chartres and continued our journey.
