Laon Cathedral

Wednesday 21st July 2010
Early pack up and off to the tunnel.  We are in a bit early and squeeze onto an earlier train and after a typically un-eventful crossing, we make it into France and are off. On the way down we take a detour via the medieval city of Laon. As we leave the motorway, we are stunned by the amazing city with its cathedral dominating an outcrop of land. We head up the hill, park up, have a very expensive Croque-Monsieur and investigate the Cathedral. Turns out to be one of the most stunning interiors as the glazing is plain and the cathedral is super-bright. The colours have not been edited, it really did look that weird.
