On Monday 21 February we did a five kilometre walk around La Roche Posay.

Medieval gateway between the bridge over the Creuse and the town of La Roche Posay. We are on the inside ie in town.

The church in La Roche Posay.

Ingrid and me mucking around doing selfies, something I couldn't do prior to getting my new phone.

I've always liked this abandoned grainstore.

Nice walk that one. I love the grain store, should be listed. The spa is looking better!
The very gateway where our car was rear-ended! Unfortunately that's my main memory of the town.
Colin and Elizabeth: I couldn't get a decent photo which shows the new building.
Carolyn: We arrived at the bridge yesterday to find a semi-trailer ineptly reversing back down the road. They had obviously realised they were never going to get through. We then had to reverse too and finally turn around and use the bypass to get to the dentist. We were late.
The only thing I remember about La Roche-Posay is very nice modern stained-glass windows in the church.
chm: Really? I think I've only been inside the church once and that was for a wedding. I don't remember the windows at all.
