Maximum temperature 17C, minimum 3C. 27km/h NE wind. Dry.
I find the above temperatures hard to believe when you can see our car is only reading 10C at 11h40!!!
The chimney sweep putting on his gloves...
always with a happy face...
Going uuuuuuup......
Brushing the chimney...
and spotlessly cleaning up afterwards.
Driving past La Rochefoucauld....
and on to Angouleme...
The roundabout and also a fountain near the station...
Angouleme Station... see Lucien on the left........
The giant statue of Lucien. Created by Frank Margerin, a French cartoonist, his most famous character, Lucien, was created in 1979. Lucien is a rocker from Malakoff with a huge pompadour that forms a cone in front of his face.
A monument at the station commemorates the forced deportations of local people by the Nazis in 1944, on trains from this station to concentration camps in Germany.
Heading back towards home yet another lovely road sign - artificial lakes created 25 years ago for water supply and recreation.
We also had lunch near the station, but those hunger-making photos can wait for tomorrow, as we have nothing else planned for what looks like a chilly day.
