Rouen

 So it was onward to Rouen. I took the train from Amiens. The weather was cold and wet but I wasn't deterred.




It took me a while to locate my hotel in the old district. Old Rouen is full of half timbered buildings and is really pretty. Joan of Arc was burnt at the stake in Rouen. I didn't have time to visit the Joan of Arc museum. A new church has been built over the site where she was burned. Growing up, she was my heroine.
