Metz

Tuesday 17th September 2024.

Day 3.

We are staying tonight on a municipal site for motorhomes only, it is situated on an island with River Moselle flowing down both sides.

We are parked next to the River Moselle.

Metz is a city in the North Eastern Grand Est region with gardens and leafy promenades along the Moselle and Seville rivers. The Gothic Metz Cathedral is famed for its massive amount of stained glass windows.

As usual the interior of the Cathedral was a huge attraction and quite rightly so, but …….

Another, church, cathedral, famous building, that Layla and I have sat outside.

After viewing the Cathedral we wandered off into the rest of Metz, there were some high end shops selling expensive clothing and items such as fountain pens at over €2,000. We decided not to blow the holiday budget but I did buy a jar of jam for €3.40. However when we stopped for a beer each it did cost €10.20, got to get used to it before we hit Switzerland.

The site of expensive beer🍺😊
Wall art next to a school.
Sun dial on the side of a building. translation “Passerby take your time otherwise it will take you.”
A wonderful macaroon/ cake shop.

We later met Alison and Peter by chance on the Esplanade Arsenal, and we had another drink before wandering back to the van.
