What Rouen had to offer:





I saw Rouen today. I lot of the building reminded me of the same style as in Stratford-Upon-Avon. It’s an old looking style with wood trimming done in a highly contrasting color. There was this underpass downtown that had “the Great Clock” on it that was really beautiful. Like Paris they also have a Cathedrale Notre Dame which Simon informed me last night I had to go see because the cathedral was mental (which in Simon’s words means awesome.) The outside had such intricate detailing that may have even been more ornate than the one in Paris. Joan of Arc was executed here in Rouen so we got to see the site where that happened as well.
