One room had a video of the work that goes into the edging of the curtains, the lace edging of the cushions - really amazing, all done by hand. Also the straw woven matting that went on the floor and all over the walls to create a real warmth in the room. It was a bed chamber of some famous bird.
Nice town! Lunch at a great restaurant. Waitress seemed a bit flustered. Crepe machine was not working for a bit.
The cathedral in the middle of Tours
ToursAfternoon back in Tours. Did some washing. Saw the cathedral. In the laundromat, some dodgy dude was sitting there, but there was no other washing. So I stayed with our things that were drying, he glanced at me, then left.
Old Tours is modern.
