Remember, these notes are often very utilitarian; reminders of when I did what. This is especially the case when I was in Aisling’s company, because I didn’t want to spend time scribbling impressions in notebooks in the few short days I had with her.
Breakfast of yesterday’s baguette with cheeses and jams. It was raining, so heading towards town past the church of St André, we popped into a boulangerie that had a couple of chairs for a watery coffee (Aisling asked for “grand café”) and a chocolate meringue bombe.
We walked around the cathedral and then spent a good hour or more inside.1.
Then we stopped for lunch, first wandering fruitlessly to find an authentic place for lunch. We found a themed gastro-pub next to the cathedral where Aisling had Irish coffee and I had café.
Next, tour of cathedral towers and nave.
Lunch of salad and fruit cake in Café Paul.
Afternoon in Musée des Beaux Arts.
Then went by bus to Carrefour supermarket in the rain, eventually home, to dinner of tinned mackerel and salad, after I’d spent another hour transcribing my previous notebook.

Oh boy, this doesn’t do Reims cathedral any justice. In my opinion, it’s the most beautifully-proportioned high Gothic cathedral in Europe.
