of the stay in Reims March 23, 2018
We stayed at a very nice hotel in the heart of Reims. We visited the Musée des Beaux-Arts to see a
1001 painting, “Venus at Vulcan's Forge” by the Le Nain Brothers. Then we visited the Cathedral Notre-Dame
de Reims. Then because we are in
the heart of the Champagne region we took a tour at Taittinger’s. We learned way too much about making
champagne. Taking these tours in town,
and out at the vineyards is a big deal for many people. We had a great dinner, the French are serious
about their food. We even had the French
version of a brownie sundae, and it was very good.
Once again I have posted too many photos,
many of them very bad, but it is what I do.
I would have gone into the Basilica of St. Remi to take more photos, but
there was a funeral, and even I couldn’t be that rude.
