St Genevieve

This morning we walked up a track to find the St Genevieve chapel. It was not a planned thing, but we saw a sign to it and decided to follow the trail. It was steep and a little muddy, but it came out suddenly onto the top of the hills with splendid views.
St Genevieve must have been a little lonely - this is quite an isolated spot. There is a small building, far more than we were expecting, and a signpost indicating a pilgrim walker's route.

One of the panoramic views, which I take in sequence with my phone, had June just in the last shot. I warned her it was coming so that she could avoid getting in the view, but she walked in front of me. Her head in the left of the picture, very windswept because it was a very windy day, has greatly improved the picture.

Vines in the distance, and very little else (apart from a windswept June)

As usual, click on a photo for a better image.

We walked back down the way we came, in the nearby village it was a lot warmer.

Later in the day, June found herself at Blacy, and from the hilltop she could see familiar landmarks (radio mast and chimney not in view). Although on the other side of Vitry le François, she found she was at the other end of the pilgrim path, just 4km from this spot we visited in the morning.
