Beauvais is a little town not far from Amiens. We picked to visit it almost by chance. It popped up in one of the travel lists we found online, and it looked pretty so we thought we would put it in our itinerary.
Again we chose to start our visit at the cathedral. Wow this was a huge gothic cathedral as you can see from the photo above. I had to cross the road and walk a distance away to capture it in its entirety.

What was memorable for this cathedral visit was the moment I saw the spectrum of lights coming in from the stained glass, bouncing on the old church walls. It felt like God was shining His love down on us in such a tangible and colourful manner.
Immediately I asked Izzy to sit there for a photo and I must say she posed really well.

Stopped by a retail park and entered a kids shop. Naturally they were drawn to their mini shopping trolley and these two decided to do a supermarket sweep! They were screaming and running amok, throwing things into their trolleys. Sorry guys, bummer, but we need to put all of them back!
