Don’t Rouen your day shopping

Lazy, sleep in then do some web surfing (or “work” if you’re CJ). A few last sights to be seen so saddle up the Dood and let’s go!

Headed for “a dome I saw from the highway” which sounds awesome as the Prefecture of Seine-Maritime. Then we find out it’s the state division of driver and boating licenses with a church (and dome) in front. But the building started as a hospital for highly infectious people located outside the city. Then it became a traditional hospital, with a chapel for the patients. Now the church serves as a front gate area and the bureaucracy has taken over.

Leaving the dome behind we meandered to the donjon or prison where Joan of Arc waited for her trial. Talk tower which is now mostly an escape room. Seems fitting.

Wandered through a few parks, back streets and found the center for CJ. She needed to check out the EU versions of H&M, Monoprix and anything else.

Bill, not so much. Drop him off at our fav coffee shop, Columbus Cafe. He sat down with a coffee, muffin and Daisy at his feet and CJ went off to check out a few places to ensure she was caught up on the latest fashion trends. She is now current.

Off to Calais in the morning.
