Le Puy en Velay

Sunday morning we got a rental car and drove down to Yssingeaux to check me in, and then to Le Puy en Velay, about 30 min further south, where mom and dad were staying. It was Sunday, so most things were closed, but the touristy attractions and shops nearby were open. It was a really cute town.

I can't get enough of these winding small streets


Steep street up to Cathédral Notre-Dame du Puy.

From the backside of the cathedral, the path up to Notre Dame de France (Virgin Mary), which we hiked up to.

View from above- yet another church

We didn't make it up to this castle, but I hope to in the next 2 months

Another view from above- these old towns are such mazes!


Dog hanging out of 2nd story window. I mean how cute is that?
