Nantes Day 3

On our final day they took us to the walled city of Guerande, which is a town that still has the medieval walls. We had a few hours to wander around in town.

The entry
It was market day!
Guerande is also where there are a good number of salt marshes-we didn’t get to visit those, but all the stores had loads of different salts/seasoned salts that are made (and harvested) locally

Collegiale Saint-Aubin
inside-this church was much bigger

After free time in the town, we went to a creperie for lunch. This lunch looked a lot like my dinner yesterday!

After lunch, we took a carriage ride through an old village that still contains the thatched roof houses, which were neat to see and interesting to learn more about. Unsurprisingly, they are a lot of upkeep!

Then it was back to Nantes, we had some time before dinner, so I used the time to explore some other areas I remember from my time in Nantes. These first few pictures are of Jardin des Plantes

The park in general felt familiar, but not quite the same, but this statue I remembered right away! It’s of Jules Verne (author) who was born and lived in Nantes.

Then I walked along part of my old bus route, which would take me past this cemetery each day. I remember on La Toussaint (All Saint’s Day) this cemetery was just a mass of orange from all the chrysanthemums that people put on their loved ones graves.

Musee des Beaux-Arts (Nantes Art Museum)-unfortunately I didn’t have time to visit

Then we had our farewell dinner, which was a true French experience (4 hours!)

appetizer was a sweet potato puree
Main course was chicken, potato puree and vegetables

We didn’t finish dinner until 11pm, so by the time we came back through the Opera was lit up and I could get a picture.

Then the next day it was time to take the train back to Lille. Hopefully, I can come back to Nantes again soon!
