As of today, we have used one out of our two eurail passes! Today our trip was to St Emilion. A medieval city. Honestly, not sure if anyone actually lives there.
In this place, they have tertres. This is a special word used for super steep streets. And I mean super super steep. There are four of them in this town. The Friend family managed to walk up these roads about 5 times.
Not only did we walk up the steep streets a couple dozen times, I think we walked the entire city a few times. It's committed to memory. But exploring cities is what this trip is all about!
We walked around the cloister of the cathedral and Arden and Scarlet had some sister bonding time. And saw some Theta pansies!
Medieval cities have a lot to offer. Special steep streets, cool cloisters, and so many things to climb.
There are stairs that lead to nothing, walls half crumbled, buildings that are probably abandoned, and cobblestone streets that are almost impossible to walk on. We had a great lunch on the terrace, toured the caves and catacombs, and had some time to browse the boutiques!
