Linz and I visited the Abbey in 1999 and loved it, but my photos weren’t digital then. We visited the town of Fontevraud again last year but didn’t go through the Abbey because we didn’t have time. As it houses the Plantagenet tombs, it is an important part of Linz’s teaching so we took the time to go through it again and enjoyed it once more. For those of you who are wondering, the answer is no, I haven’t taken my new camera out of the box yet, so there’s a good excuse to have to come back and photograph the Abbey all over again next year!
