MONT ST MICHEL...The MYSTERY of the ROPE
#AbFav_PHOTOSTORY
#AbFav_INSIDE
We decide to go on, walking up the one street… (GRANDE RUE, lol), which is narrow and claustrophobic, full of souvenir-shops and ‘Crêperies’, we battle our way through till we get to the stairs, where we take a break.
The climb to the abbey is hard -- by the time you have mounted the celebrated Escalier de Dentelle (Lace Staircase) to the gallery around the roof of the abbey church, you will have climbed no fewer than 900 steps -- but it's worth it…
Just over halfway, we saw that you had to pay to visit the Abbey, church and the other I interesting rooms…
Paul goes and moves slowly along with the huge waiting queue.
I decide, hiding in the shade, to concentrate on some interesting detail.
I must say it is all very clean and looks very ‘cared-for’!
I wonder what that rope is for?
THANK YOU, M, (*_*)
