The weather was not to bad in the morning and so we walked through the old part of town for several hours and also entered a few shops out of interest and had a coffee in a nice bar, forgot to have the brandy with it, though.
The old part of town and the cathedral is quite historic and it is understood that Joan of Arc was given her farewell here as there are numerous signs reminding you. The cobbled street and interesting shops were of great interest and no Marks and Spencer of Boots or WH Smith equivalents and so the shopping experience is much nicer than most UK towns. We went via the food market and then on the to famous clock
tower and Jennifer bought a new lipstick. Inside the market there was a good choice of fruit and vegetables and also a super fish shop
with a significant choice of fish. In one corner was also a restaurant where you could have your Oysters with a glass of plonk for a reasonable price but neither Jennifer or I like oysters so that was out.
For lunch we had some sandwiches and planned where we would go for dinner that after consulting Trip Adviser and we decided that we would go Italian for a change and found this restaurant which you could book online. In the afternoon the weather changed for the worse with strong wind and rain and we hoped that it would go away before we had to leave for the restaurant only it did not and so we got blown to the restaurant which was about half a mile away and when we got there is was down some stairs and there was the Pizza oven blazing away in a nice walled room with a great atmosphere.
Jennifer had half a pizza and a salad whilst Noel had Tagliatelle with Salmon also very good and washed down with a small pichet of white wine.
We walked back to the Hotel in the pouring rain and high winds being unable to get a taxi anywhere, apparently they are like gold dust to find. However we made it back home to the Hotel and got warm in bed until light's out but we watched the latest 'The Grand Tour' on the PC for good measure.
