Welcome to the Website for Brian, Joe, and Matt's Trip to France in 2012
This
map shows most of the places we visited. The purple names are links to our photos.
Click on any of them,
or to see the photos as we traveled to the sights, begin with Amiens in the
upper righthand corner of the map.
To
start off, though, have a look at these photos of the interior of the cathedral
of Chartres, southwest of Paris.
We stopped there on our last full day in France, driving back from southwest
Brittany to Paris. The cathedral
is in the midst of a major cleaning project, removing centuries of smoke and
grime. The effect of the newly
cleaned sections, compared to the rest, is astounding, showing the church as
it was when it was first built.
