Dentelle and Lentilles

A beautiful day in Le Puy en Velay.  I spent most of it walking about to see the sights and clear my head after the long trip.  I visited Saint-Michel d'Aiguilhe (www.rochersaintmichel.fr), a chapel on a high basalt pillar, reminiscent of Meteora.

The two regional specialities seem to be lace, workshops, galleries, and lessons everywhere, and lentils, a vqriety grown locally and cooked with local recipes - delicious.

There is a strong push to develop the pellerin market at the cathedral so I went for a cafe and welcome, both fun - recommended if you come through here.

Tomorow I walk.
