Today has been our day of chores and explores here in Le Puy. The old town area and church date back to the 5th century and perhaps earlier. There are several tall volcanic plugs that, over the centuries, have become sites for religious sites. Like the statue of Mary and Jesus: 
Or the chapel of Archangel Michael: 
And of course, the main church, Notre Dame de Le Puy:
One thing we want to pay attention to is the local cuisine. Last night, Bill had Saucisse and Polenta, while Diane had local trout (the Loire river is here), both of which are very popular here:
Tonight we sort of, kind of, kept the local thing going, with Bill having a burger (local beef) and Diane opting for a Chevre salad (she was thinking of you, Willow):
Tomorrow, we start walking. 80% chance of rain, all day. We seem to start every Camino with a rainy day. We guess this Camino will be no different! Bon Marche!
Good luck with the walking tomorrow. We love you both. Also we had an amazing time at the Harry Potter concert yesterday! Kimmy asked me to say thank you SOOOOO MUCCHHH!
Stephanie, you warm our hearts to hear Kimmy enjoyed the concert. We love you guys very much. Please take care!
Thanks for sharing the pictures of the chapel and statue, it’s pretty amazing how they took advantage of those spires. Nice reference for an animation designer to use! The church gives me a similar impression to the one Gilda and Juan Manuel showed me in Metepec, near Toluca. Although the exact form of it isn’t quite the same, the hillside was also used nicely. https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Iglesia_Metepec.jpg
Hi Micah. The chapels on the tops of these spires are amazing! If you get a chance to look up a YouTube video of the “lumieres de Le Puy”, you should be able to find the one where they use the spire for a projection screen. The presentation is amazing, but part of it is an animated story of its construction. You might find that interesting. Thanks also for commenting on the blog. We really do le hearing from you.
