Having had problems for a few days with sending a blog finally the blog seems to work again!! so now I can send a few more photos.
Maastricht a stunning city, very affluent, a marked difference from rural France. Don't think I have ever seen so many up market shops in such a large area. Everyone dressed beautifully, even the uni students have a certain style about them. Another marked difference is the lack of motor vehicles, main transport is by bike. Mind you with some of these narrow streets you would be hard pressed to get a car down them.
7th century water mill that still works grinding flour, bakery next door bakes it and sells it, cafe also
part of old city wall
Helpoort ( Hells gate ) one of the old city gates
former Faliezustersklooster dating from 1647 now houses
pretty cycle
wouldn't this make a lovely Xmas door decoration!!!
