Today Katy and I hopped on the TGV and went to Reims where all kings in France were coronated. Straight off the train we strolled to the majestic cathedral and tried to remember all our art history classes on French gothic architecture. Behind the altar Katy gasped and then squeaked out, "Is that Chagall?" Before us were three Chagall stained glass windows with imagery connecting the New and Old Testament, the holy spirit, and Christ, all in an otherworldly, ancient blue. I don't think I've ever stumbled upon anything so special.
We then took a taxi to Les Crayeres for a lovely lunch.
